THE FOLLOWING TRYOUT SCHEDULE IS TENTATIVE!
Day 1 (8/22)
Ridder Golf Course Driving Range
Athletes will be given a free bucket of balls at the range - setting 10 golf balls aside, each player will have the ability to warm up and practice whatever clubs they choose from their bag.
With the 10 golf balls set aside, coaches will monitor players individually, informing them what club to hit. They will be rated on a point system, which will be explained the day of, where players will be evaluated on their swing, contact, and overall performance.
During this time, athletes will also have the opportunity to practice putting, where they will then be monitored individually for varied distance putts. Distances may range from 3 ft putts to 40 ft putts (lag putting). This, too, will be rated on a point system.
Day 2 & Day 3 (8/23 - 8/24) - NOT SURE WHICH DAY WILL BE WHICH YET
Whitman Hanson Regional High School / Ridder Farm Golf Course
Each athlete trying out will be given a round of golf (9 or 18 holes - determined by the course). During that time, you will be randomly placed in a foursome. Each player is required to walk the course, carrying your own bag (unless you have medical documentation that says otherwise).
COURSE AND LEAGUE RULES TO KNOW:
Stroke play is the format, meaning every stroke counts.
No player can score higher than double par (i.e. if it's a par 3, the max you can score is a 6).
Range finders are allowed, but only for distance.
No caddies or spectators allowed.
No shared equipment (clubs/balls) - everyone must have their own.
No cell phones permitted during play.
Proper golf attire required (collared shirt, no cut offs)
The other day of tryouts will be held at the high school, where athletes will be asked to hit "target zones" from various distances away. Players can accumulate points during this process, which will be added to the driving range point totals.
This year's tryout will combine individual skill points (tallied from target day and driving range/putting) along with performance on the course (overall score) to help determine who makes the team. We are allowed to keep 16 players.
