A LETTER FROM
GARY
It has been a great start to the year! It’s wonderful to
see the enthusiasm of all of the students. They are totally
committed to improving their game.
We started the year by assessing every student’s physical,
mental, technical, and on-course aspect of each his or her
games. This allows us to build a personal development plan
for each student. This assessment process aids each student in
understanding their plan, which ultimately helps him or her reach
their full potential.
I have reviewed each full-time and post-graduate student’s swing
through video analysis and have given them the drills to help them
build confidence and consistency in his or her swing.
To support these efforts, we have also included daily fitness training on the
range, which will accelerate the physical changes necessary to make the
improvement to their swing.
Based on input from our student council, we added a quiet study environment
in housing including private and group work spaces. We have also added a new
dining hall space and fitness regimen, all of which have reduced travel time
for our students. Feedback from our students and parents has led to great new
opportunities at GGGA.
One of our favorite student activities is off-site weekend golf. This
semester, we have already played at 5 different courses in just the
first month. This gives our students an opportunity to preview
some of the courses that they might play in upcoming
tournaments this semester.
I have enjoyed spending quality time with the students
and look forward to a great Fall semester.
All the best,
