The best junior players in the country will put state pride on the line when the Australian Junior Interstate Teams Matches get underway at Brookwater Golf and Country Club.

The event has been dominated by New South Wales since the format changed to incorporate both boys and girls into each team in 2022 but there are talented players within every squad.

The host state of Queensland will lean on Keperra Bowl champion Chase Oberle, Alfie Ward, Godiva Kim and Ionna Muir, Victoria boasts Amelia Harris, Hamish Farquharson, Sophie Mann and Elbert Kim while South Australia has the recently-crowned Australian Junior champion in Raegan Denton along with Malachy Marshall, Stephanie Keylock and Jackson Leonard.

The format will see each state and territory play four singles match play matches (two boys, two girls) in a round robin format, the winning team the one who accumulates the most points across their six matches.

Teams will play two matches per day with one of the seven teams to have a bye each round.
