BHS duffers cap 24 hours of golf

The Bainbridge High varsity golf teams, girls and boys, recently completed a 24-hour golf marathon fundraiser.

Beginning at Havill Golf in Winslow at 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 21, pairs of players divided up the following hours, spreading the action across several venues — local and virtual.

“We had a pizza party and kicked off the event,” Spartan girls Head Coach Ian Havill said. “In two-hour shifts, two girls and two boys played Pebble Beach, St. Andrews [and] TPC Sawgrass through the night until 6 a.m.”

The teams then shifted to Meadowmeer Golf & Country Club from 6 a.m. to noon.

“The final leg of the golf-a-thon was at Wing Point [Golf & Country Club] from noon to 6 p.m.,” Havill said. “The players enjoyed the experience and the booster clubs were able to raise funds for their programs.”
