The Kansas City Golf Association is proud to announce its 2014 Mid-America Junior Cup Team. The Mid-America Junior Cup is a two day Ryder/Walker Cup style competition begun in 1999 in which the top juniors from Kansas City face off against the top juniors from St. Louis.  The KCGA and Metropolitan Amateur Golf Association (St. Louis) alternate in hosting the event. This year’s event will take place October 25-26 at Fox Run Golf Club in Eureka, MO. Eligibility for the team is based off of the KCGA Junior Amateur Boys/Girls Standings for the year. The format for the first day is same-gender four-ball while the second day is co-ed alternate-shot. The KCGA looks to retain the Cup they secured at Blue Hills in 2013.
