The start of the season
At the beginning of the 2024-25 school year, golf started their season and was welcoming people to come join the women’s golf team. Practice started on August 5th, welcoming students to come see what golf is all about.
- “At the start of the season, there were only 2 players,” said Senior Eve Feldman.”Me and Miranda were the only ones on the team when the season started.”
Getting more people: To have a good start to the season, we needed more people to join the team so there would be more opportunity for things.
- ”I was talking to my friend Chrislyn Peralta about joining the team,” said Feldman. “Chrislyn Peralta then had a friend of hers that was considering joining the team.”
How the season is going now: Even with only four players on the team, the golf team has done extremely well, despite not having many players.
- “We’re doing the best we ever had in our matches and even in practice,” said Feldman. “We all have a very strong and fun relationship with our coach.”
Building the program: It always helps with more players on the team like in case some players get sick or injured, they will have a backup if needed. It’s also a way you could get to meet people and you might really enjoy it.
- “If more people joined we would have backups in case someone got sick and they could fill in or even just come out there and have fun and enjoy it,” said Feldman.
Why people might not know about it or want to join: Golf is not the first high school sport most people think of, but in an area known for the activity, our team should be bursting at the seams.
- “Personally I made great connections on the team and got to make new friends, not only is the coach super friendly and supportive but so are the girls.” said senior Chrislyn Peralta. “Sadly it’s my last year I won’t be able to play next year I encourage anybody who can or even wants to, to definitely give gold a shot.”
