Golf summer sport for Juniors Preparations are underway for our Junior Invitational tournament that takes place August 16. By the time this goes to press the tournament will be over and winners declared for another year. This year over 60 young golfers ranging in age from 10 to 18 years will be taking part. Each golfer must play 18 holes and prizes are presented to winners in three age groups with every participant receiving a prize. Gord Sallows from Seaforth donated our Junior Trophy over 15 years ago and there is a long list of names engraved on it. Many former winners have gone on to make golf their career; names such as Steve Bennett (head pro at Huron Oaks), Dave Bedour (assistant pro at Huron Oaks), Matt Cole, (pro at Beachgrove), and Mark Kappes. Many other former winners continue to dominate amateur competitions for exam- ple - Brennan Little and Mike Weir, both champion competitors at provincial level. Our junior golfers enjoy plenty of golf all summer long with Tuesday mornings set aside for their special events. Without a doubt the local invitational is what our juniors look forward to each summer. Many of our own juniors do well here and at other competitions in the area, including club events and the Optimist events. It truly is gratifying to see an 85 lb. 10 -year-old shoot a dynamite score in competition. They may not hit it far, but they're right down the mid- dle and after playing almost every day all summer, their chipping and putting is great. The youngsters get all dressed up for their big day and are well mannered as well as skilled at the game. Golf teaches them good sportsmanship, self discipline, fairness, and honesty. Golf for juniors is a great way to spend the summer and I congratulate all our young golfers who took part in the tourna- ment. Everyone of you is a winner!
