If you are having trouble registering your child on MyPGA, the issue is usually caused by one of the following:
The account birthdate or account holder information is incorrect
The system is prompting you to pay the #GameChanger Club fee again
The program is not yet open for registration
The account state information is incorrect
Registration is not visible in the MyPGA app
The registration status shows as "In Progress" and does not complete
Use the sections below to identify the issue and fix it.
Before you start
Confirm you are logged in as the parent/guardian account holder
If you are unsure which account you used previously, check the email address that received prior MyPGA or PGA Jr. League messages
First time users will create the parent/guarding account as part of the Registration process.
Ensure the account holder information reflects an adult as the primary account holder, as the system requires an adult to register a child in the PGA Jr. League.
1) Registration blocked due to age or date of birth (DOB)
Common cause
Registration can be blocked if the date of birth (DOB) on the account or player profile is incorrect.
How to fix it
Download or open the MyPGA app
Log in to the MyPGA account associated with the player
Edit the player’s date of birth under account/player details so it matches the player’s actual DOB
Return to the registration website and try again
Ensure players are registered to the appropriate Division
Division eligibility (based on age as of July 31 of the program year)
9U Division: Player must be 9 or younger
13U Division: Player must be 13 or younger
17U Division: Player must be 17 or younger
Examples
If a player turns 14 on August 1, they are still eligible for 13U that year
If a player turns 10 on July 30, they are not eligible for 9U
2) Being asked to pay the #GameChanger Club fee again
What is the #GameChanger Club?
The #GameChanger Club is a required annual membership for each player participating in PGA Jr. League.
Cost: $120 per player
Renews: once per calendar year (January–December)
Paid by: parent/guardian during registration
Important: Each player only needs to purchase it once per calendar year, even if they join multiple seasons or programs
Common cause
This prompt usually appears when you are registering from a different MyPGA account than the one used previously.
How to fix it
Confirm you are logged into the same MyPGA account used for the previous registration
If unsure, check the email address that received prior registration confirmations or program notifications
Log out and back in using the correct account
Reattempt registration
Once you are in the correct account, the system should recognize the membership as already paid for that calendar year.
3) Program looks available, but registration won’t go through
Common cause
Sometimes a program appears in search results before registration is fully enabled for the new season.
How to troubleshoot
Visit the Find Program page on the PGA Jr. League website to confirm the program listing
Check back periodically, as new programs may open throughout the year once finalized by the coach
If you are a returning player, contact the coach from your previous season to ask when the next program will be available
Registration Not Visible in MyPGA App
Sometimes, a child’s registration does not show up in the MyPGA app. This can often be resolved by:
Verifying that you are logged in with the correct email address used during registration.
Logging out of the MyPGA app and then logging back in.
Reinstalling the app to refresh your account data and ensure the app is functioning correctly.
Registration Appears 'In Progress'
When the registration status is displayed as "In Progress" and does not complete, it typically indicates incorrect account holder information on the MyPGA account. Follow these steps to resolve it:
Verify that the MyPGA account was set up with the parent or guardian listed as the account holder rather than the child.
Update the account holder information in the account settings to reflect an adult, which the system requires for completing registration.
Editing Incorrect State Information
If the registration displays the wrong state, you can update this through the MyPGA app:
Navigate to your account settings within the app.
Follow the app’s step-by-step instructions to correct your state information or any other errors.
Additional support
If these steps don’t resolve your issue, contact PGA support through the MyPGA app or the official website for help.
