GOLF

Each player must be a student in good standing, passing all subjects, and willing to follow the rules set forth by the school and coaching staff. The student initiates his involvement with the golf team by signing up and participating in practice sessions leading up to tournaments.

Students are required to pay for their own uniform. They are to provide their transportation to and from practice and tournaments. Players are to attend the two instructional practices per week. These practice sessions will be held either at Columbia Country Club or Shadow Ridge Golf Course.

The top six players with the lowest score and one alternate will make the travel squad to away school sanction tournaments. (Exception will be the district and state tournaments, all players will attend these tournaments.)  A player not qualifying to go on scheduled tournaments may challenge the alternate to a 5 hole play off at least two days before scheduled tournament to gain a spot on the travel squad. The player with the lowest score will assume the travel spot until challenged and defeated.

We are presently starting up a girl’s golf team. The hope is that we can develop a well rounded program that will lead to scholarships for our woman athletes.

We are proud to have one of our four players sign a scholarship with Pearl River Community College. Colby Woodward has played for CA for the past four years. Not only did he play but, the year before I took over as coach he helped to keep the program going by keeping up with scheduling and getting players to and from tournaments. He has been a pleasure to coach. He is the type of person that helps to represent a organization such as our school very proud.
