Golf Australia runs these popular Rookie events four times throughout the year. Formally known as the Victorian Under 16 Junior Classic, these events are a great challenge for regular junior players and a stepping stone for those children looking for their first competitive experience.

Compared to the 9-hole Rookie events, the age divisions have been enlarged to incorporate children aged from U8, U10, U12, U14 and U16. The Australian Pitch'n'Putt course in Mulgrave provides an ideal venue for these events, with prizes for boys and girls awarded in age divisions and for gross and nett (using the "Aust Pitch'n'Putt Callaway System"....no handicap required to compete).

Played over an 18 hole layout of testing short Par 3s, and concluding with a sausage sizzle, a participation certificate, and a 2 for 1 return play voucher, these events are great fun for all the family....and often form a child's first competition experience. 

The format of play is a 9am multi-tee start, with play generally taking around 2-2.5 hours to complete. Presentations are held afterwards and the event winds up around lunch time.
