We will play/walk 9 holes per day. Fee of $25 is due before play each day. This includes one range token.
A physical is required for participation. These can be found at AHSAA.com. The physical must have player, parent, and doctor’s signature with date. Also, you must be academically eligible. If you are a rising 10th, 11th, or 12th grader, you must have passed all your core courses with a 70 average and be academically on track; otherwise, you cannot participate.

Tryouts are for new prospects only.
Please arrive with at least a basic knowledge of the rules of golf. Also, you must have your own clubs.
We are a championship level program, so tryouts are normally very competitive. This is a varsity sport and not a recreational club. We compete on the highest level.

Senior Yearbook Information
This year, students will be required to submit an application to have their Quotes, Baby Pictures, Activities, etc., included in the Yearbook.
Senior Information Applications/Packets will be handed out to students during Homecoming Week. Copies will be made available in the Front Office of the main building and in Mrs. Peck’s room 226. There will also be digital copies posted in the Senior Schoology group, on the Yearbook Facebook Page, and in the Yearbook Schoology group.
We understand how important it is for Seniors to have the opportunity to have all the special parts of themselves included in their final yearbook. For this reason, we have implemented ways to prevent student information from being left out. The ONLY way for a student to have their information included in the Yearbook is to submit the packet application in its entirety prior to the due date. There will be no exceptions. The packets will be due 11/01/2022.
