Bring A Friend Day (28 March 2011)

Hello! Hello!

Our 2011 season kicked off to the welcoming dry and warming weather at Cottonwood GC Monday. We had a good turn out for this early in the year and spent some quality time both on the range and on the putting green.

Putting proved a touchy aspect of golf, though it got easier as Coach Mary showed the group some very cool putting drills. 


Some of us did better in judging how hard to hit a putt when our eyes are closed and some with our eyes wide open. Taking care to line up a putt and focusing on giving our stroke a good tempo helped, though. And many good putts were made despite of the obnoxiously twisty nature of the finishing 9 holes putting round.

The 2011 Season Is Almost Here!

Hello Everyone!!

First of all, I want to say that I am so excited for this new season of Girls Golf to begin! 

For those of you who will be our newest members, welcome!!! I'm Coach Mary and I'm really looking forward to meeting each and everyone of you while having as much fun as we can on the golf course!

For you returning members, welcome back!!!! We had a lot of fun last year, and I have every intention of creating an even better golfing experience this season!

Michell (the blogmaster) will be posting more updates on our blog, The LUGGer's Log, for you, so be sure to take time and check it out whenever you get the chance. The LUGGer's Log is for you to stay informed, and to keep in contact! As well as check out whatever Michell tends to sneak onto her camera during the events of all of us.

Now with the proper announcement: We have 2 events that I want to make sure everyone is aware of.

First, of course, is our 1st Event on Monday March 28th, 3:30 - 5:30pm at Cottonwood GC. We will all meet on the driving range, where you will see the Girls Golf Banners. The Event is "Bring a Friend". So.... BRING A FRIEND!! 

Normally, a guest can pay $10 to attend any of our events. However, for this first event, each guest will only be charged half the usual price ($5). This is an opportunity for anyone else who may like to join the Program and become members before we get the show rolling for the year. Besides, having a friend around always makes it more fun!

Last, but not least; I have free entry tickets for the LPGA KIA Classic which is being held at Industry Hills GC in Los Angeles area on March 24-27th. On Saturday, March 26th, I will be joining with my fellow LPGA Coaches and Tour Players for the LPGA Tour Junior Clinic at the KIA Classic.

Anyone who is interested in going to the KIA Classic on Sat March 26th should give me a holler. I can take 3-4 girls with me to the Tournament, and if any parents would also like to attend, let me know. If more than 4 girls would like to attend, maybe we can do a caravan. I have 8 free entries, so first come first serve with this one.
