Dragons enjoy annual camp
Listen to Learn, Work Hard and Enjoy the Game" was the message being delivered to young golfers this week at the Tiffin University Summer Golf Camp. This year's camp marks the third year that the Tiffin University golf team has offered a golf camp for boys and girls ages 8-18. The golf camp is run by Head Golf Coach Darby Roggow and his players. "I am excited that we;are able to teach young adults the game of golf and hopefully instill an appreciation for the game," stated Coach Roggow.
The golf camp is designed to teach aspiring golfers to love the game that they will be able to play for the rest of their lives. The camp took place at Brookhaven Family Fun Center, Mohawk Golf & Country Club, and Seneca Hills Golf Club. All three facilities were used to demonstrate the fundamentals of the game, the rules of the game, and some on course golf etiquette - all while maintaining a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. "The Tiffin University Summer Golf Camp would not be as successful as it has been the last several years without the help of the members of the Tiffin University Golf Team and our local PGA Professionals, Todd Bertermann (Mohawk Golf & Country Club) and Chuck Putsch (Seneca Hills Golf Club)," stated Coach Roggow. "I cannot thank them enough for the support that they provide to the golf program."
