Pennsylvania golfers selected for state team as part of U.S. National Development Program
After announcing the creation of Team Pennsylvania in February, the first roster of the Keystone State’s next stars is confirmed following the 2025 season.
Team Pennsylvania is represented by 12 junior boys and 12 junior girls. Eight of the team boys and girls members were selected by a points-based system with the remaining four members selected by the Team Pennsylvania Committee at-large using the points as a reference. Team members will earn benefits for the calendar year in which they are selected. Players will need to earn a spot on the team each year.
