Pepsi Little People's Junior Golf Tournament
The Pepsi Little People's Junior Golf Tournament is an esteemed event catered to boys and girls aged 3 to 18. It has been held annually in Quincy, Illinois, USA, since 1974. Starting from its 51st edition in 2024, the Quincy Service Club will take on the responsibility of hosting the tournament. Over the past 50 years, Little People's has welcomed approximately 24,000 junior golfers and their families. Many of these participants have gone on to pursue successful careers in professional golf, playing on prestigious tours such as the PGA, LPGA, European, Korn Ferry, PGA Champions, Sunshine, Symetra, and others. Others have excelled as college players, golf professionals, coaches, or in various golf-related businesses.
