Golf
2025 Season
We are looking to partner with First Tee to have practice sessions in the fall. Match play will be in the spring.
Golf offers homeschool students a unique chance to compete and connect with others. These young golfers often practice at local courses or with community programs, working on their swings, putting, and overall technique. At golf tournaments, they enjoy the challenge of the sport and the friendly competition, which helps them gain experience and confidence.
