GOLF MAGAZINE Dear Junior Golf Community, We would like to thank you for reading our 16th issue!

It is hard to believe what was just an idea in early March 2021 has turned into a full year of content driven to feature the happenings on the FCG Tour and to inspire junior golfers and help parents along the way.

It has been a lot of work and a lot of help from many different people and we thank everyone for their support. We look forward to an even better 2022 year with the program and the FCG Magazine. We are always up to hearing from you so please drop us a message if you have any ideas or any comments to make the magazine and the FCG program better.

In each issue of the magazine, we have goals to inspire junior golfers and educate parents on the process of becoming a great player and more importantly, how to love the game. We think golf is so important for families and wish every family could golf together for a lifetime. As a parent, what more could you want than being able to spend several hours out on the golf course with your kids.

As always, we hope you play the game with passion, keep your head up high, walk with a purpose and enjoy your time outdoors playing golf.

FCG CALLAWAY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP JULY 18-20, 2022 // Register Here >

The Desert Princess

By Dean Gregory – June 10, 2022 At the FCG Callaway World Junior Championships in July, the Girls 13-14 division will have the pleasure of playing The Desert Princess (Vista/Lagos).

This semi-private facility that features 27-holes was designed by David Rainville, opening in 1985. You will see majestic views of the surrounding mountain vistas and pristine conditions from tee to green.

Both of Vista and Lagos nines will give you a variety of course design. Even though both courses have ample fairways, the Vista plays like a links style with rolling fairways. Whereas the Lagos is lined with palm trees

and giving you challenges to hit shots over and around water hazards. Of course, if there’s water, there has to be sand. Tiff Bermuda grass is the grass of choice of both the fairways and the sloping greens. Although the course is relatively flat, doglegs in its design will also make you correct selections of shots.

The Desert Princess will challenge you but, it will also be fair and most importantly, enjoyable.

Smeal’s Coaching Tips 3 WAYS TO MAKE YOUR PRACTICE SESSIONS MORE PRODUCTIVE 3 FADES / 3 DRAWS DRILL

PUTT WITH PURPOSE

Select a club and a target on the range. Try to hit 3 balls right to left to the target and then 3 balls left to right to the target. You may find that you are better at hitting the draw or better at hitting the fade. Do this every day to get control of your ball flight and understand your game better. Try this before you head to the first tee of your tournaments to see which one works better. If you are struggling to hit a draw don’t try to hit a draw all day. This is an easy way to PLAY BETTER!

Doing drills while you practice can be a great way to build consistency and confidence in your game. At the conclusion of every practice session you should do some kind of putting competition with another player or just against yourself. You want to see if what you just worked on is improving. You want to have a tough 3, 4, 5, or 6 foot putt that means something and see if your system for making it is working.

If you can gain some confidence from this competition your next round will have a better chance of being a good one. After all- your practice is to build confidence in your system for scoring.

DRIVER DRILL Rather than just swing towards nothing. Pick a fairway on the range; go through your full routine and try and hit the fairway. There are usually 14 fairways to hit in a round of golf so do this 14 times on the range each day for practice and learn your patterns.

You can write down your results each time too for better game tracking and awareness. We all make adjustments to hit the ball better on the course when we hit a few bad shots. Maybe this will help you make better adjustments and get the ball in the fairway more often. Many times a player will miss left off the first tee in a round and then be so scared of hooking the ball all day that they miss right the rest of the day. Then after the round they think they have a miss right problem when really they just have a fear of left.

KNOW YOUR GAME!

PERSONAL INSPIRATION COMES IN DIFFERENT SHAPES AND SIZES

By Dennis Murphy NED (NO Evidence of Disease) is an all-inclusive program rooted in HOPE. With each Dr.’s visit anyone battling the beast “HOPE” for these three magical words.

For anyone living this journey 24-7 365, HOPE can take place in different shapes and sizes. For Ty Wilhelmsen, Hope-takes shape in the form of a necklace. A small symbolic piece of jewelry worn religiously, inspired life changing opportunities on his journey.

Here is Ty’s story: “I Wear a Necklace. A necklace: a form of jewelry used to adorn the wearer. To me it meant more than just a piece I could show off, but it would represent the obstacle I would have to overcome in my life. My necklace symbolizes the life changing event that affected me; the struggles, and victories that have followed. My necklace is a medical ID tag that I wear proudly. In 2005, when I was five, I was diagnosed with a cerebellar brain tumor. After surgery, I was left with a paralyzing syndrome; unable to voluntarily move my muscles, I could not even speak.

My family and I were told that I might never walk again. It took years of determination, therapies, and a progression of wonderful people to get me to where I am today.

This tiring and long journey of trying to recover took me along a path of severe challenges and inspiring people; these challenges and the people who helped me overcome them made me stronger, pushed me to try new things, and encouraged me to discover more about myself. Over the years my balance and walking improved. I had always loved sports, and when I was eight, I was paired with Curry College Men’s Soccer through a small organization that helps kids with brain tumors, called “Friends of Jaclyn.” I practiced with the team and watched during games and my passion for soccer grew. These guys were so helpful with everything from soccer to academics. They helped me grow on and off the field. My newfound passion led me to play team soccer and although I never scored a goal or had the ball a lot, it was a great experience. In my Freshman year of high school, I decided to try cross

country, which involved running on trails covered with rocks, roots, inclines, and declines. This was certainly a test for my balance and endurance, but I crossed the finish line at every race and never gave up. As a kid, I believed that “disabilities” were a curse, and that if you had “disabilities” you were to be treated differently.

That belief was finally transformed during the summer before my senior year.

My mother suggested I attend a five-day meditation retreat for teens. “I think you will like it,” she said, but I was hesitant and didn’t think I would ever like meditation. I could not imagine myself meditating. I was totally wrong! The first night at meditation I was asked what I wanted to get from this; I did not know!, so I just said, “I’m here to find freedom from myself.” I had no idea that these words would be a driving force. After three days of meditation and deep thinking, the belief that my “disabilities” were a curse vanished and a new idea formed: maybe the “disabilities” are just part of who I am. I began to think of my disability as a sort of blessing, understanding that the tough times we go through can make us stronger if approached with the right attitude. Later that summer, I attended “INIT,” a teen leadership program retreat. I began to find that my life experiences were an inspiration to others. I began to see that I was not just a person in need, but that I also had something to give.

My experiences with sports, volunteering, leadership, meditating, and having a brain tumor have all been valuable and life changing. Because of these life-changing experiences. I have learned that with grit, determination, a great attitude, and help from others; I can rise to any challenge. From the curse of a brain tumor, I found that setbacks could also be blessings that connected me to others and made me a stronger person.” Instead of letting the beast get the best of Ty physically and mentally, TY’s “can do’ attitude and spirit demonstrate that being a NEDvocate-(Noun: an inspiring person who improves the quality of life for anyone battling a disease or cancer) can change other people’s lives. Being a NEDvocate can take shape in a variety of unique ways. Ty Wilhelmsen wears his strong personal desire to overcome his challenges around his neck. An inspiring story of Hope and Inspiration in the form of a necklace.

POWER TESTING FOR JUNIOR GOLFERS

We all know that power in a golf swing ultimately leads to higher club head and ball speeds. With that speed, we are able to reach the ultimate goal of hitting the ball further.

I believe that testing is imperative when it comes to measuring power and acceleration for junior golfers. I am so excited to announce that Engstrom Athletes is the only facility in San Diego county to utilize the Proteus Motion as a tool for measuring this type of data.

How does it work? I begin with collecting data for each individual athlete with the main goal of achieving the fastest results, in the least amount of time.

The Proteus Motion allows me to focus on each individual’s specific needs, based off of their test results. The unit uses accumulated data to determine which areas young athletes excel and where they need more work.

Each golfer will have their own personalized profile, which records their data and tracks their progress.

With the information that is gathered, I am able to create specific training programs to help each young athlete achieve the best results, as we will continue to test and retest every month.

12

Not only am I testing their athletic capabilities, but I am also training at an elite level by gaining real-time feedback. This technique encourages the junior golfers to focus on their personal goals as they compete against their own power scores.

Throughout training, my junior golfers have acquired a feel for the ground and also learned to transfer power from the ground up, through their body and into their hands. This helps them develop a stronger base, strengthens the core, and become more efficient in their power delivery. All resulting in a better, more powerful golf swing.

I would be honored to be a part of your young athlete’s journey towards becoming a better athlete, but most importantly, achieve their goals whether it be to compete at a collegiate level or professionally.

If you are interested in getting power tested today, please do not hesitate to reach out: Engstrom Athletics Email : ryan@engstromathletics.com Phone: (760) 807-2731 Instagram: engstromathletics

SHOULD I TAKE A GAP YEAR?

By Michael J. Smith, ForeCollegeGolf // JUNE 2022

As you progress through the college recruiting process, you may stop and think, should I consider taking a gap year?

For some, a gap year could be ideal. The following article outlines the main considerations for those of you who might not be ready or prepared to take the leap to college.

First, let us look at the different types of “gap” years.

• Post-Grad – after graduation, taking time to work on all facets of personal development • Grade retention - Repeating a grade in high-school or continuing education • Part-Time – enrolling part-time in a junior college or online classes (less than 12 credits/semester) • Traditional– taking time away from school and athletics to travel and embark on new journeys (not recommended for prospective student-athletes*) Next, let’s understand the most common reasons players tend to opt for a gap year.

• Young Age • Academic Standing • Athletic Development • Initial Eligibility • Health Problems • Social Aptitude/Maturity • Missed School Now, let’s look at the pro’s and con’s associated with the decision to take a gap year.

Pro’s • Can assist with personal development - physically, mentally, emotionally, socially • Can assist in “readiness” for college golf • Players who were late to golf, the “late-bloomers”, will have more time to showcase their skills to coaches

18

We must also be aware of the Con’s of a gap year.

Personally, I see too many players taking gap years because of the hopes they will improve their games and greatly enhance their chances of a D1 scholarship. I think this view is flawed for many reasons, the strongest of which is that most times, especially at the peak of their development, it is very difficult to see major gains in performance unless there is a significant life altering change in a players practice, training, and preparation. However, in the case that a player needs to develop with the maturation process at their age or simply needs more time to be “college ready” with their academics a gap year could be the more logical and correct answer, rather then just throwing themselves, for lack of better words, “in with the lions”. Below I’ve listed the NCAA’s requirements to become initially academically eligible as a freshman in college.

Per NCAA Rules, a prospective student-athlete interested in playing college golf must successfully complete 16 core courses per NCAA Division 1 – Bylaw 14.3.1.2.1, Core-Curriculum Time Limitation. In layman’s terms, once a player begins high-school, he/she has eight (8) semesters to successfully complete the required core courses. (see below for D1/D2 breakdown)

Considering the decision to take a “gap” year should be treated on a case-by-case basis. Each individual is different and is most likely facing a different situation.

Let’s now discuss some of the Con’s when considering a gap year.

vidual and could position the player for more recruiting opportunities. Additionally, players who are underdeveloped could choose to take a gap year are better prepared to take on the busy challenge of becoming a student-athlete and are given ample time to mature.

Con’s • No guarantee you will improve your college recruiting opportunities • Less structure in daily life and having to manage time and activities independently • Complications with NCAA Initial Eligibility • Increased confusion for College Coaches which could raise red flags if the gap year plan/vision is not communicated properly and understood by all parties.

• Friends will leave town and embark on a new chapter in their lives, leaving many without friend groups, feeling left out and lonely, and on a different life path for the next year.

For players who choose to take a gap year, understand that you will have to be highly motivated and prepared to embark on your new journey. This is not a vacation or time away from responsibilities, rather it’s your opportunity to show coaches you are capable of becoming a student-athlete. There will be sacrifices and commitments you will have to make in order to change your current situation and ultimately impress coaches of your athletic and academic abilities.

While taking a gap-year is certainly not for everyone, in many cases it could provide an additional year of academic, athletic, and personal growth for the indi-

SIBLING GOLFERS

All in all, each player considering a gap year should carefully evaluate his/her situation to fully understand and optimize their college fit both from an academic and athletic perspective. Whether you decide to take a gap year or not, it is paramount you and your team create a plan that is best suited to maximize your development.

HEALING THROUGH GOLF Priest Rivera has played in several Future Champion Golf tournaments.

“Priest,” who is 16 now, suffered life-threatening burns while viewing a science experiment conducted by his teacher. The experiment exploded in his face, causing his left cheek, ears, neck, chest, eyelid, and hair to catch fire.

He was rushed to UCSD Hospital, where he underwent multiple surgeries. Priest, a competitive Golfer, found himself putting three balls a day into a glass while in the Hospital.

Golf turned out to be the surprising big healer in Priest’s life, believing that if it were not for the sport of Golf, he would have endured a much more difficult road to recovery and assembling with society. He formed the Priest James Foundation to help people with traumatic injuries heal through the sport of Golf. On June 25th, the Foundation kicks off by installing a putting green at UCSD Hospital, the same Hospital that treated Priest.

You will be getting an invite to the event and would like to please share this fantastic story and perhaps consider a donation to the Foundation.

HOW TO PREPARE FOR COACH CONVERSATIONS If you know you’re going to meet a coach at a camp or after a round this summer, you should probably think about what you’re going to say.

By Dr. Katie Brophy Miles on June 9, 2022 Welcome to your first job interview!

Get ready to answer some questions: I was on a Zoom call with a brand new student last week. I kicked off the call by asking him to tell me about himself. He told me that he was pretty boring and didn’t do much but golf. He said he didn’t like school that much either.

Let’s just say that I was not very inspired by his answer, BUT I told him not to worry because we would practice before he has to answer that question from a college coach.

Have you actually thought about your first conversation with a college coach?

For both 2023s and 2024s, your messaging to college coaches matters! How you present yourself may be the difference between them saying “yes, come play for me, here’s a scholarship” or “no thanks”.

Here are a few common questions that coaches will ask you: • Tell me about yourself.

• Why are you interested in playing golf at (insert school)?

• What are your goals for college golf?

• What are you looking for in a university?

• Where are you in the recruiting process?

Do you have questions for coaches?

I was a college coach for 11 years. I spoke with hundreds, probably more like thousands, of recruits on the phone and in person. I was always evaluating which players would be good fits for my teams. Whenever prospects told me that they had no questions, it felt like a missed opportunity and usually got a NEXT from me. Use your brain and consider what you would like to know!

• What are your goals for the program?

• How do you run tournament qualifying?

• How many players are you bringing in for my class?

• What does your ideal recruit look like for my class?

• Do you have a list of tournaments that you will travel to for recruiting this summer?

Do your research prior to your conversation with Coach Follow them on social media. Instagram and Twitter are great ways for you to see how the team gets along, where they get to practice and travel, and see what a day in the life is like if you were to be a student-athlete at that university. Coaches can also gain some insight

26

into your life as well. SO, clean up your social media accounts. If there is ANYTHING that would be embarrassing for them to see on there, TAKE IT DOWN. If you don’t want your mom or grandma to see it, remove it from cyberspace. Take a look at the team’s website, roster page, and schedule. That will give you a frame of reference for where they are in their season, who is on their team, and where they typically travel.

2022 EVENT UPDATE!

The 2022 FCG Callaway World Junior Golf Championship will make its way back to Palm Desert, CA and we are so excited to bring back some of the extra things that make this Championship so special and unique.

In 2022 all players will have to qualify to compete in the Championship, meaning we will no longer accept players via resume for the 2022 event and beyond. Stay tuned for a complete list of qualifiers worldwide. Qualifying begins in August 2021 via the FCG National Series and World Series tournaments and with our partner tours.

SUN & FUN

By Dean Gregory – June 2, 2022

You’re probably thinking to yourself, “School’s out and summer is here. Wahoo! Finally, summer vacay… no wait! I have to play this tournament. Play that one, play here, play there.” What you thought was an almost two-month vacation has now been cut down to what seems like almost two days you will get to hang out with your friends away from school.

But alas, ‘tis the season for the junior golfer. Summer is the time you’ll be exploring and traveling to new exotic places (playing a tournament somewhere that you drove from that’s at least 3 hours from any major airport or city). Experiencing and learning new things (doing practice rounds on courses you never played before). You will meet new people of all ages, sizes and backgrounds. They may even be from another country.

Most everyday will be full of sunny rays and warm to hot temperatures.

So, with all of that new excitement you will experience, you have to make sure that you remember that it is indeed, summer. Remind yourself to do summer things.

It’s easy to just stay wrapped up in playing tournaments. You need to take some time to relax the body and mind. This way you can stay sharp every time you go out to play. The other thing to remind yourself is that even though you’re an athlete, be a kid…enjoy the sun and fun of summer.
