Richmond Hill, Ont. (June 23, 2015) – The CJGA Junior Linkster Tour is headed to Acton, Ont. this Saturday to host a tournament at the beautiful Blue Springs Golf Club. Linksters between the ages of 5-13 will be hitting the course in a 9-hole competition with a full field of competitors. All players will be displaying their talents at the challenging Blue Springs Academy course.

Generously spread over 444 acres of the ruggedly beautiful country northwest of Toronto, Blue Springs Golf Club hurtles over exciting terrain that provides adrenaline-pumping elevated tee shots, views of pristine forests, leafy valleys and ponds teeming with largemouth bass.

A classic risk-reward course, Blue Springs offers many temptations off the tee and into well-protected greens that have a wide range of contour, testing your short game. The 9-hole Academy course is a great course for novices, and families to experience a true parkland course. The Academy course will provide a challenging yet rewarding experience for young golfers.

The weather forecast for Sunday calls for sunny and partly cloudy with temperature projected to be in the 20’s.
