NORTH BATTLEFORD — Nevin Gloe, coach of the North Battleford Composite High School’s golf team, says players are full into their short season.
“We should have eight players, four boys and four girls, part of the NBCHS golf teams this fall.”
High school golf season is a short one with District Championships taking place Sept. 18 at Jackfish Lodge and Golf Club.
“Last season we had three players qualify for provincials, but only two were able to attend. Both of those students are no longer at NBCHS as one moved and one graduated,” Gloe says.
This year, the Sask. High School Athletics Association Provincial golf event takes place at Northern Meadows Golf Club in Goodsoil Sept. 27-28.
“We are in the midst of finalizing the team Sept. 9-10 hopefully. The season is short with districts coming up early in the school year, and provincials for those that qualify soon after. Goal is really to make sure the students have fun and hopefully play the game for life, and it is always a bonus when our student-athletes are able to qualify for provincials and gain that experience,” added Coach Gloe.
You can follow golf updates and results on either NBCHS social media or the SHSAA website, which updates all of its events as the season goes on.
