Coach Rebecca hosted her first GVSU Girls High School Golf Camp at Grand Valley, and would say it was a pretty successful week of camp. GVSU hosted 13 girls from across the state, including two girls from Connecticut!
Over the 5 day long camp, the girls were instructed on the full swing, short game, putting, bunker play, course management, and the Rules of Golf. Each of the 7 1/2 hour days were divided into different aspects of the game, all while preparing them for their high school golf season and summer competitions. On the last day, a tournament was conducted at The Meadows where the girls put what they learned during the week to test! The course played difficult with the rain that came the night before, but the weather cleared up just in time for the girls to get out on the course and compete!
The camp was also made fun for the girls with different activities such as an egg race (where Coach Rebecca wore most of her egg!) and different team building activites that the current GVSU Lady Lakers assisted with! We can't thank Ashley, Ali, and Caroline enough for taking their time and helping with the girls at the camp! Also, a big thanks goes to The Meadows for use of their facilities.
Coach Rebecca aslo gave away a bunch of GVSU prizes for winning skills tests and challanges throughout the week. It's safe to say that every girl walked away with a prize!
Overall, the camp was a great week and a wonderful learning expierence. Every girl had fun and they all walked away a better player!
We hope to see all the girls back next year!
Until the next time....GO LAKERS!!!!
