Northland Golf development manager Michael Macdonald said it was great to see so many young kids involved at the weekend.
"Bay of Islands' Kerikeri Golf Club and the wider community really got in behind the day and made it a great success."
Junior golfers from around the country were attempting to qualify for the Manawatu event at the weekend.
The young golfers were playing for the chance to travel to the United States to represent New Zealand in the World Junior Golf Championship.
Junior Tiger is a NZ Golf initiative designed to promote the game to young people as an affordable and accessible sport. Since the series was introduced in 2009 it has proven to be a very popular initiative.
New Zealand Golf High Performance co-ordinator Liz McKinnon said a number of players have gone on from Junior Tiger to achieve great things in golf.
"Lydia Ko, who was a national winner in 2009 and is now the World No. 1 Women's Amateur, is a great example."
