I don't want to rain on the parade but I suspect they are very competitive. The kids hoping to get one play all the time and compete in junior tournaments. The high school near where I lived in Seminole Florida basically told kids that unless they belonged to a country club and played several times a week, it was doubtful they'd even make the team. Many kids have private couches and/or attend golf camps. I know all this because my son played golf in high school. He didn't attend the neighborhood school but went to a magnet school where there weren't a lot of golfers and was able to play on the team. However, never hurts to try.
