TRADITION HILTON HEAD, Hardeeville, S.C. -- In an effort to provide college golf opportunities for all junior golfers, UNDER ARMOUR, in association with the IJGT and Hank Haney International Junior Golf Academy on Hilton Head Island, is sponsoring the first-ever College Golf Combines that will bring exposure to junior golfers seeking to continue their golf careers at the collegiate level and earn a degree.
Two combines will unite junior golfers and college golf coaches from Division I, II, III, NAIA and junior colleges. An East Combine is scheduled for July 28-29 at Tradition Hilton Head’s Tradition National Golf Club in Hardeeville.
The following week, a West Combine is slated for Aug. 4-5 at East Valley Golf Club in Beaumont, Calif.
“With more than 100 recruits already registered from throughout the United States and around the world, the East Combine has been very well received as a new opportunity for junior golfers to be evaluated by college coaches,” said Tournament Director Stephanie Gelleni.
University of South Florida women's golf coach Marci Kornegay said the golf combine will benefit young people as well as colleges’ golf programs.
“What a great service for college golf coaches to be able to observe future players hitting an assortment of skills shots in a pressure situation,” she said. “This golf combine idea is long overdue and could be one of the biggest tools for collegiate recruiting.”
