WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (June 23, 2003) - West End Apparel, LLC, has been formed by Rob Garrett and Aubrey Linville of Winston-Salem, NC. The company focus will be clothing for junior golfers.

"Through the National Junior Golf Club tournaments, we saw a need that was not being met," said Aubrey Linville, COO and co-founder of West End Apparel, about the formation of the new company.

"We thought juniors needed their own clothes at moderate prices," added Rob Garrett, CEO and co-founder, West End Apparel.

The new junior line will be available to golf shops nationally and on line at the Junior Golf Warehouse (www.juniorgolfwarehouse.com) or National Junior Golf Club (www.nationaljuniorgolfclub.com). Junior Golf Warehouse will also offer U.S. Kids and La Jolla junior golf clubs as well as a variety of other junior golf accessories.

In addition to West End Apparel, LLC, Linville owns the National Junior Golf Club (NJGC), which holds events for junior boys and girls aged 6-19. Garrett is active in operations of the NJGC. This season, there will be over 100 NJGC events in North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Events are held at many high quality courses including Tanglewood GC, which is the site of the RJR Championship on the Champions Tour, and Bermuda Run CC, which has hosted the NCAA golf championship.
