Attention Golfers, 

 

Golf tryouts will be held the first week of school.  The boy’s tryouts will be held Tuesday August 16 at Tenison Glen Golf Course.  First tee time starts at 5 pm.  The girl’s tryouts will be held Wednesday August 17 at Tenison Golf Course Driving Range.  The tryouts will start at 5 pm.  All players must try out to become a member of the team.  The only exception are seniors who have 3 years of membership on the team; they are not required to try out.  

*Physicals will be due before the first day of practice shortly after Labor Day weekend. 

 

Boys Tryouts: The boy’s tryouts will consist of “X” holes of stroke play on the Tenison Glen front nine. The number of holes played will be determined based on the number of players who sign up.  Everyone will need to be able to finish before dark, so it could be less than 9 holes. The 15 low scores (and ties) will make the team. Only players with on-course experience are encouraged to try out. Here is the link to sign up:

Girls Tryouts: The girl’s tryouts will consist of an evaluative tryout on the driving range and putting green.  Wedge game (shots from 30-50 yards), iron play (shots from 60-100 yards), and tee shots (shots hit off the tee box with a driver or fairway wood) will make up the evaluation on the driving range.  The second part of the tryout will be held on the putting green. Participants will putt from 3 spots: 3 feet, 12 feet, and 20 feet. The best 15 scores (and ties) will make the team.  Here is the link to the sign up:

If you are a multi-sport athlete or participate in multiple activities on or off campus, please talk to me before tryouts about your availability throughout the year to determine if golf is possible within your schedule (golf is a yearlong varsity sport with seasons and practice in the fall and spring).  

 

Underclassmen are not admitted into the athletic period automatically.  They are only admitted if a parent can confirm they have reliable transportation from Woodrow to Tenison on Mondays and Wednesdays during the athletic period starting at 3.  Golf team members are not required to be in the athletic period to participate on the team; however, it is strongly encouraged.   

 

If anyone needs golf clubs or equipment to tryout, they must send me written notice in an email 48 hours prior to tryouts. 

 

There will be a Zoom meeting on Thursday August 11 at 6 p.m. to cover any questions not addressed here.
