The opportunity for the junior game to grow in Louisiana is immense, and I look forward to helping achieve that,” said Norris. “I also look forward to helping build around the excitement of the Louisiana Junior Golf Tour by continuing to conduct premier tournaments for our state and provide unrivaled experiences for LJGT members. There are tremendous people and clubs in Louisiana that love the game of the golf and support it thoroughly. I am excited to continue to build genuine relationships with those people and clubs with the common goal in mind of growing the game of golf for the juniors and amateurs in our state.” The Louisiana Golf Association is the governing body for amateur golf in the state of Louisiana.
