With the fall approaching, the Robinson Golf Team finishes up preparations for their impending competitive season.

As always, with the end of the previous school year, many very experienced seniors were lost from the team. However, while their departure was significant, the Golf Team doesn’t feel that they will be held back too much as a result of this loss.

“Last season went pretty well. Unfortunately, we lost four of our top players because they graduated…[but] we won’t let that set us back going into this season,” Cade Vanaelst (’23) said.

The 2021-22 season concluded with the girls’ team coming in fifth place and the boys’ coming in eighth at Regionals. With the departure of the last senior class, Issa Allbritton (’23) would serve as captain of the golf team.

While it is generally helpful to be experienced in the sport, the Golf team is welcome to players of all skill-level.

“Playing almost every day is a great chance to develop your game and free golf doesn’t hurt. By no means do you have to be a professional golfer,” Oliver Warner (’23) said.

Due to the player deficit currently afflicting the golf team, they’re open to anyone who would like to take a shot at golf.

“This season might be a little different because of the lack of players we have. That being said, whoever wants to come and try out golf, we would love to have you,” Allbritton said.

Coaches Kevin Mccray and Samuel Brown will be holding tryouts on Aug. 2, with the first match taking place on Aug. 22 against Warton at the Heritage Isles Golf Course.
