FootGolf

On June 3rd, some of the Alumni Coaching Team took a nice trip to Rancho Park Golf Course to play a game of FootGolf. 

FootGolf is a precision sport where players kick a football into a cup in as few shots as possible. The game is played the same way as golf, except players use a football instead of a golf ball, and the ball is kicked rather than struck with a club, working towards a 21-inch "cup" in place of the usual golf hole. The player who plays the 9 or 18 holes with the fewest shots wins. Footgolf as sport is played on golf courses. It was an interesting experience to say the least. We had balls zipping through the grass and others soaring into the green. There were also the occasional ball in the bush, almost getting stuck in a tree, knocking one another ball out of the way, and missing the hole 6 times before sinking it in. Nonetheless, we will be visiting the golf course again soon enough.
