[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the most part high school golf is just for fun.  People who are serious care about the junior and amateur circuits.  High school golf is just for fun and to get out of school early.  No one cares too much about the results.[/quote]

So what kind of training/playing background did your kid have before making the team?[/quote

Mine had played golf for a long time.  Years and years of junior tournaments, lessons, etc.  But that isn’t too typical at most schools.  HS golf just isn’t a big deal.  It’s one of those sports where the school teams just aren’t the focus of anyone.  There is a whole Junior Circuit of varying levels that is run outside of schools that are the focus of junior golf.

Op here - May I ask what HS your kid played for and did you belong to a private club?  If “high school teams just aren’t the focus of anyone, “ why did your kid play for his school team with all of his intensive training?  Why didn’t he just stick to the circuit outside of school? This is a very expensive sport for us and we don’t have a lot of resources although DS loves it so we make it work as best we can. We are in a W cluster although not the typical demographic.  We’re trying to figure out how he can compete without being way out of his league against kids who have access to private club instruction and other benefits. [/quote]
