My Mom-Mom got me interested in golf when I was around 7 years old. Since then I’ve always loved the study and work of golf and learned any way I could from coaching to watching others play. I joined First Tee younger which helped me learn more golf skills and play with other kids my age. As I have grown up, I keep going with my love of the sport and have even continued it all the way to high school by playing on the golf team for my school. I was able to play on the high school golf team as an 8th grader last year and I look forward to joining the golf team again as a 9th grader. Now the reasons why I got into golf are many, such as the feeling of getting the ball into the hole, the new and fun people who turn into friends by sharing the interest of golf, and realizing this isn’t much of a common sport for females of my age.

I am still a part of the First Tee program and have been taking some private lessons to improve my game with Coach Becky Dengler. In the Spring, I will try out for my high school golf team and hopefully once again join their team. I look forward to honing my skills, improving my golf score, and continuing my love for the sport of golf.
