After two beautiful summer days at Sandridge Golf Club in Vero Beach, four teams came away with victories in their respective divisions at the 2018 Junior Team Championship. The 13-15 year old boys and girls teed it up on the Lakes course while the 16-18 divisions played on the Dunes course. Each team consisted of three players and the top two 18-hole scores from each team would be combined to form a team total. After two rounds, teams from the North Florida Junior Golf Foundation, Winter Park Golf Academy, Gold Coast Junior Golf Foundation and the Junior Golf Association of Broward County prevailed. 
The North Florida Junior Golf Association would get their shine as their 13-15 year old boy team took home first place honors. Clay Tucker and Lucas Slayden paced the team with rounds of 73-72 and 78-68 respectively, but Campbell Kennedy was right there as well with a 79 and 75 on Saturday and Sunday. Tucker and Slayden were first and second in the division individually, while Kennedy was fourth. As can be imagined, the team won by 15 shots with the Junior Golf Association of Broward County placing in second.
