The Front & Back 9 Junior Golf Academy Children’s Business Fair inspires children to discover their inner entrepreneur. This one-day market gives children the opportunity to showcase their very own businesses.

Application must be submitted online. Please submit one application for each business. Children working as a group should submit one application that includes each child’s information. No more than 3 participants per business.

There is no cost for participation. We are a non-profit (501c3) organization and welcome donations. You will have an opportunity to donate during the application process but feel free to donate via our website at www.frontback9.com.
What is on the application?

The application asks kids to think through some simple, but important elements of their business:

What product or service do you plan to sell?
What price will you charge for each product/service? How much will each product/service cost you?
How will you advertise/market your business before the fair?
At the end of the fair, how will you determine if your business was a success?

Two cupcake businesses? Not a problem. In general, we will let market forces play out, though we will let later entries know if another applicant has a similar idea so the later entrant can decide what to do.

1. The fair will be an outdoor event with tables and/or booths.
2. Each business is responsible for bringing their own table, chairs, supplies and other booth decor.
3. Each business will be given space for an 8-foot table and 1-2 chairs at the tee box of a hole on the golf course where they have the opportunity to pitch and sell their products to the golfers and other event participants.

This event is designed to give children the experience of selling a product or service.

Parents of younger children may sit in the booth, but the children should be responsible for set up, customer interaction, and sales.

Parents may help their child fill out the application, but we expect the children to do as much as possible by themselves.
