MARKHAM, ON (March 9, 2010) The Canadian Junior Golf Association (CJGA) is pleased to announce a three year partnership with Nevada Bob’s Golf as an Official Partner of the CJGA.
Nevada Bob’s Golf, a corporate banner of the Forzani Group Ltd., will become an Official Sponsor of the Clinics for Kids Program as well as the Official Sports Retailer of the CJGA.
