FAQ: 
Experience needed? No. 

Equipment needed? Having your own clubs is VERY HELPFUL, even if they are an incomplete set. If you are putting together one, include the minimum for TRYOUTS: a PUTTER, a WEDGE or high-iron such as an "8 or 9", a 7 - IRON, and DRIVER. Old BAGS are usually easy to find and you will need something to carry the clubs in. When looking at used in clubs, the NEWER models are EASIER to hit.  

What should I do if we don't have clubs? If you do NOT have equipment, let Coach Tyler know on the "Additional Info" section of the GOLF ONLINE REGISTRATION but be sure to include if you are left or right handed

Transportation?  Please note that there is NO BUS to take athletes to and from the golf course during TRYOUTS as well as during the SEASON. STUDENTS are responsible for arriving to practice & arranging carpool rides with other team members. If this is a problem, especially early in the season, contact Coach Tyler and he will do his best to help make arrangements. The early he knows, the easier it will be. Once the season is underway, schedules will be made to keep carpooling athletes in the same events. Please be sure to complete the GOLF PERMISSION FORMS so appropriate carpool arrangements during the season can be made. 

Type of golf attire needed? Proper golf attire is important and required. During practice as well as events, players are expected to wear a collared-shirt, shorts, or pants (no jeans/denim, cut-offs, or gym shorts), tennis or golf shoes (no flip-flops).

Length of REGULAR season? Our REGULAR season is 9-weeks long, beginning on MONDAY FEBRUARY 26, 2024 (Tryouts) and ending on APRIL 30, 2024.

How long are practices?  Depending if we begin on time (3:15pm), the speed of course play, or if we are practicing at the range, a typical practice will end at 6pm (Course) or 4:30pm (Range). 

How long are matches?  Depending on the speed of course play, matches sometimes take a little longer but EVERYONE is usually finished by 6:30pm. 


How is GOLF SPECIFIC information relayed to players?  We have 3 ways that we distribute information: 1) BLOG Lindberghflyersgolf.blogspot.com 2) EMAILS  3) sportsYou NOTIFICATIONS to players/parents. It is the players responsibility to SHARE these notifications to their PARENTS if their parents are not registered with sportsYou. -- Especially when the notification directly affects them such as cancellations or adjustments due to weather.
