​Frequently Asked Questions
​

How do I register for an event? All registration forms for both spring and summer schedules are located on the Tournament Info Pages. Competitors must submit registration form, parent/player waiver form and submit payment in order to be properly registered for an event. The Prep Tour will confirm your completed registration for events via the email address you provide on your registration form.

Can I submit multiple registration forms and multiple payments or must they all be on one form? You may submit as many registration forms as you like. However, you need only submit one player/parent waiver which covers the entire golf season for that year.

Are there any membership or registration fees associated with The Prep Tour? No. Only tournament fees are charged per tournament. No additional membership or yearly fees are charged.

I see where some events are single days, while others are 2 Day Events. Can I sign up for just 1 day of a 2 day event?
2 Day Events are nationally ranked Junior Golf Scoreboard events. You must sign up for both days in order to compete.

How are your divisions/seasons determined? To coincide with Junior Golf Scoreboard guidelines, your division is determined by the scholastic grade you are currently in when playing in that season's event (Spring Season - Current Grade, Summer Season-Upcoming Fall Grade).

Spring Season - March -June For example, if you are currently an 8th grader, you would compete in the Junior High Division of the Prep Tour Spring Events. 

Summer Season - July - August (Division determined by the school year you are going into the upcoming Fall)
For example, if you will graduate from 8th grade in May/June; you would compete in the Freshman/Sophomore Division of the Prep Tour for the Summer Season events. If you will graduate from Sophomore year of High School in May/June, you now play in the Junior/Senior Division of the Prep Tour for summer events.

Junior High Boys - one division for 6th-8th graders.

High School Boys Divisions are determined by the year you will graduate from High School. Freshman and Sophomore boys compete together in one division, Junior and Senior boys compete together in one division.

High School Girls - all in one division.

Collegiate Men - one division at select events.

How do I get on a Tee Sheet? Register for an event by sending in these 3 forms:

How do I drop out of an event I have already registered for? You may withdraw from an event that you have already registered for by emailing skennedy@preptour.com A withdrawal does not automatically generate a refund. See our Refund Policy.

Can I get a refund? If you submit a timely refund form, you may be eligible for a refund or to transfer monies to a future event. Cancellations or withdrawals do not automatically cause a refund to be issued. Click our Refund and Weather Policy. Click our Refund Form found on The Prep Tour Home Page.

Are caddies or motorized carts allowed? Caddies are only allowed at select events: Mother's Day at The Rail (Mothers only), or the 6-6-6 events. Motorized carts are never allowed for competitors unless a medical condition is provided and approved by The Prep Tour in advance of the event. Push carts are allowed at all events by competitors.

Are spectators allowed? Being a spectator is a privilege that The Prep Tour allows under the provisions of its Spectator Policy.

How can I find out if an event is postponed or cancelled due to weather? Tournament delays and cancellations​ will be announced on Rained Out (The Prep Tour's event alert messaging service) and updated on The Prep Tour website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed.

How can I be added to a waiting list? If an event is full, you are allowed to request to be put on a waiting list. If additional spots become available, you will be contacted by the Tour Director to secure a late registration.

​Late registrations are required to be paid through a credit card transaction and a 4 % convenience fee will be added. Late registrations are not eligible for refunds in any instance except for weather related cancellations of an event.
