Norfolk, NE – Norfolk Country Club played host to the opening event and first Nebraska Junior Golf Premier event of the season, presented by GolfTEC Omaha. Along with the regular stops on the Nebraska Junior Golf Tour, NJG offers Premier events each season that focus on the more accomplished golfer with set-up and administration similar to a championship competition.
