Belding Boys Golf 
Doug Anderson, PGA Professional-Varsity Coach
Raymond Meyer-JV Coach
Dear Parents:
Welcome to another year of Belding Golf. If you are reading this letter it is because your son has some
interest in representing Belding Public Schools through participation in the
sport of golf. We, as a coaching staff,
are looking forward to working with your son, helping him to develop his
playing skills in the arena of competition.
However, your son is not the only member of the golf team. You, as a parent, are part of the team and
play a very significant role in your son's golf experience with Belding Public
Schools. In fact, in many ways he will
not succeed unless you provide the necessary support. We have developed a list
of support items for you, so that you will be aware of what you need to do
with/for your son in order to help him be a successful Belding golfer.
1. A sports physical, which is required before
your son can participate in any team functions including practices.
2. Proper clothing and equipment.
a. Golf shoes (recommended over tennis shoes to
prevent slipping)
b. Khaki or Black, pants or shorts, for matches
(the team will look like a team)
c. Team shirt (we will advise on the cost and
kind)
d. Golf clubs (we will recommend on request)
3. Transportation
a. Your son will need transportation to and from practice.
b. Your son will need to be picked up after practice and matches.
4. Please try and schedule appointments that do
not conflict with practices or matches.
It is a good possibility that your son will be qualifying for one of the
six playing positions on a weekly basis.
If he misses the opportunity to qualify, he may miss the chance to play
in a match.
5.
Fundraising
We would like to have
a fundraising event in order to provide some equipment for the team, and pay
for
the JV Coach. The type of equipment we would like to
provide is as follows:
Team Golf bags; Team shirts; Rain gear; Golf balls; Team umbrellas; Golf
shoes
Thank you for the efforts you make on your sons
behalf. We are looking forward to a
great season. If you have any questions
please call one of us.
