In 2001, the USGA made a commitment to the industry-wide GOLF 20/20 Junior Initiative to manage and promote the ultimate junior golf Web site, JuniorLinks.com. Since then, the USGA Grants and Fellowship department has managed JuniorLinks.com, a golf industry initiative to accelerate growth and participation in the game. The junior-friendly golf Web site connects kids, parents, and program directors with events and opportunities in the golf community. With interactive tools ranging from Rules of Golf quizzes to greeting cards, to contests, JuniorLinks.com is packed with exciting ways to get connected with the game.

In addition to providing resources for juniors, JuniorLinks.com offers resources for program directors on fundraising, starting programs and running tournaments as well as opportunities to share best practices on various topics.
