The UJGT is a subsidiary tour of The UGA, an adult amateur developmental tour that has operated continuously since 2001. The experience gained by the successful operation of the UGA will insure to both the players and parents that the UJGT will be operated with the highest degree of professionalism possible.

It is through the operation of The Unifour Golf Magazine, now the Carolina Golf News Today the publisher discovered that some very talented junior golfers did not have the where with all to get their golfing skills recognized by college coaches. Rankings, both state and national, are critical for a young golfer in order to catch the eye of college golf coaches. However, the lack of the financial ability to compete in events that provide those rankings were generally out of the reach of these talented junior golfers. What few they could enter would not provide sufficient points to aid them in the rankings. Thus they are left with only one path, walk-on.  

The UJGT will after each event email the results to all North Carolina college golf coaches in an effort to make them aware of the UJGT players.

The goal of the UJGT is to provide the most economical opportunity for junior golfers to challenge themselves in very competitive events in order to improve their playing skills that will enable them to play at their next level.
