There are countless benefits to participating in the HJGT internship. Interns will meet and

interact with many people and get to know the future stars of the PGA and LPGA tours. Interns

will be around influential and successful sponsors, parents, and spectators. Interns will also

work closely with golf professionals, directors of golf and course superintendents. In addition

to the contacts made, the internship also serves as an opportunity to obtain full time

employment with the HJGT or through its massive network which now includes Nexus. This

internship is unlike many other programs because of the hands on experience you will receive.

Interns will be given daily tasks that have a big impact on the organization. You will learn how
