For the third year in a row, we hosted the 8th grade field day for Samuel Gaines Academy at the Westside Chip and Putt Complex—and what a day it was!
More than 100 enthusiastic students joined us for a morning of fun, fresh air, and their first introduction to golf. For many, it was their very first time to ever hold a golf club. It took some time to get comfortable, but their excitement was contagious. By the end of the day, students were making solid contact and celebrating their progress.
We are passionate about more than just golf—we’re focused on building game changers. We use golf as a vehicle to teach life skills, confidence, and core values that students can carry with them on and off the course. Field days like this are the perfect opportunity to introduce youth to a new sport in a welcoming, supportive environment.
A big thank you to the teachers and staff who helped make the day possible—and to the students, who reminded us all how fun it is to try something new.
