Golf is a slower paced sport that focuses on precision and accuracy. Gar-Field Golf is a varsity level VHSL Fall sport. Golf season tryouts are during summer at the end of July, with preseason workouts beginning on July 8th. We practice off site at Forest Greens Golf Club. Golf matches during the summer are typically 18-hole matches and are held at local golf courses in our community. Once school begins, there will be 9-hole matches after school. The District and Regional Matches are both 18-hole matches; you must shoot a qualifying score to make it to regionals. Golf season will be completed by November.
