Welcome to the updated Aberdeen & District Junior Pennant Golf site, previously known as ADJPL
We are now Aberdeen & District Junior Golf Tournaments, hereafter to be known as ADJGT.
Name has changed due to the fact that we organize other tournaments rather than just the League.
All info from the past may be found in the archives page.
History of the ADJPL
This was formed in 1968 at a meeting held at Nigg bay GC on Tuesday 19 th March.
Golf clubs represented were Bon Accord, Caledonian, Hazlehead, Nigg Bay, Stonehaven and Victoria.
Northern joined the league later in 1968.
It was agreed to call the association the, Junior Section Inter Club Competition, later changed to
ADJPL.
Victoria did not play in the League.
The first secretary was Bill Christie from Nigg Bay GC from 1968-1979
Then Bill Adams from Caledonia GC from 1979-1987. Richard Smith from Royal Aberdeen took over
the reins from 1987-1992.
My predecessor, Gordon T Murray from Hazlehead then took control from 1992 to 2022, having
served many years with Scottish Golf.
The organisation has encountered many changes in formats and amount of teams taking part since
then, with only one of the founding clubs still participating, Stonehaven.
