BGGA Hosts a
Leadership Event
for Students
Bishops Gate Golf Academy (BGGA) Leadership and
Character Division hosted a Habitudes Leadership
event for students on January 15, 2018.
At BGGA, the focus isn’t only on golf. The Academy
is driven to instill excellence in golf and character in
students and holding these types of events drives
home that focus.
BGGA students had the day off from school for Martin
Luther King Jr. Day and spent their time learning what
it takes to become a great leader.
The highlight of the event came when Timothy
Alexander shared his story and inspired the students.
Timothy Alexander has dedicated his life to motivating
and inspiring others. Timothy was ranked the #8
high school football player in his state and had the
opportunity to play for any college in the country. A life
changing car accident in 2006 left him paralyzed from
the neck down. Even though his dreams of playing
college and professional football were shattered that
day, Alexander has gone on to accomplish new dreams
and find his purpose in life.
The students were captivated by his story and took
to heart his message about being able to do anything
they want to do by being persistent, resilient, consistent
and committed.
The presentation was led by Executive Leadership
Coach Michael Arnold and Andrew McPeak of Growing
Leaders.
Arnold will continue the Habitudes series with students
by holding more seminars throughout the semester.
