Invitations go out by Priority Status level, highest first. For each Regional, Levels 14–13 (and Lifetime) unlock first, then Levels 12–11, 10–9, 8–7, 6–5 and finally Level 4, one week apart, each at 3:30pm Eastern.
No. Invitations are offered on a space-available basis and registration is first-come, first-served once your level unlocks. Popular age groups can fill before lower levels are invited; after that, players go on a waitlist.
Level 4 or higher. Players below Level 4 are not invited to Regional Championships.
3:30pm Eastern Time on the date published for each level — 12:30pm Pacific.
Look up any junior golfer's current Priority Status and when it expires.
