Golf

This year we saw a lot of new members join the Golf squad, which is great to see. We trained at Kew Golf Club twice a week and it was great to see the students working hard to improve their game. The Monday session included going out onto the course, which everyone enjoyed, and the Thursday session was about improving our skills either on the range or putting and chipping on the green. Towards the end of the season, we were lucky enough to go use Trackman, a golf launch monitor paired with a simulator that tracks your swing and ball path to provide advanced data on the range, which gave all the students insight into their swing and shots and was a great experience for the squad.

Two members qualified for the AGSV Golf Championship at Spring Valley. Sam Keenan put in a lot of hard work over the holidays to get to an 18 handicap which qualified him to enter his first tournament. Sam enjoyed the experience and shot 90, tied 33rd, an outstanding effort on a new course playing stroke. Callum Yates shot 76, 5th, and qualified for the State final to be played at Frankston Long Island later in the year.

The Golf squad would also like to give a special thanks to Mr Miriklis for supporting every single student and helping us all improve our game.
