OCTOBER TRYOUTS (FOR THE 2023-2024 SEASON)
Tryout rounds will be played at Redhawk (from the blue and black tees) on Wednesdays throughout the month of October.
If you are involved in a different sport during the fall season, let Coach Boyatt know before the October tryouts and I will arrange an alternate date for you to try out.
What do I need to do to try out for the boys' golf team?
    1)  Get cleared to play sports at GOHS. (It requires a sports physical, so plan ahead.)
           Here is the link for instructions to get cleared.
    2)  When players are cleared, I will list them on this page.  If you are not on this page before the week of tryouts, you will not be allowed on the course.
    3) I would love to get to know you.  Send me an email,  jboyatt@tvusd.us  , or stop by room 357 and introduce yourself.
           It is always exciting to meet new players that are interested in the team.
Why are tryouts held in October for a spring sport?
1)  Daylight savings ends in early November.  After that date, it is impossible to play nine holes after school.
2)  Many of the players that make the team will be allowed to enroll in a 6th period PE class that will allow them to go to the golf course after 5th period. 
        Since the new semester begins in January, the tryouts need to be held before then so schedules can be adjusted.
3)  Any fundraising that needs to get done will be completed between November & February so we have the funds needed to run the program.
What Will I Have to Shoot to Make the Team?
Look at the scores for the returning players on the "2024" page.  That will give you a general idea how our returning players scored last year.
PURPOSE OF OCTOBER TRYOUTS
New Players:
    1)  Obviously, to see what newcomers will make our rosters this season
Returning Players:
1)  I like to get everyone on the squad back together for a few days.  Not only to see how our games have improved since last season, 
       but to get to know the new players on the team.  Hopefully you can start playing with them in the months before the season begins.
2)  It is meaningful to give players a sense of where they stand on the team.  It will motivate some borderline players to work harder before February.
3)  We need to get everyone playing  Redhawk.  Most of you play elsewhere in the off-season.  Our league championship will depend on how well we play at home.
4)   I want to post as many rounds as possible for every player on the team. Season averages start from day one.
     Looking at "Overall Averages" for the year is often the deciding factor when it comes to important lineup decisions.
5)  We need to finalize a roster.  We will complete our fundraising efforts before the season starts in February.
        We only want you to help us raise money if it is certain you will be on the team.
In an effort to keep the number of players manageable at Redhawk this season, we are going to carry TEN players.
Ten players is a good number to have on the squad.  That allows us to play at Redhawk in three groups, and allows a competitive environment from the top to bottom.
As a varsity match includes only six players, that allows us to have one foursome that can follow the match at our Redhawk competitions.
Only having one extra foursome allows the boys to finish before dark, and allows them to post a scores to try to earn their way into the "starting six".
Yes, returning players may be cut if there are newcomers with lower scores.
How much does it cost to be a part of the team?
The state of California says that a player will be provided a high school athletic experience, regardless of his ability to pay.
The district funds a stipend for a varsity golf coach, transportation to league matches, and a portion of our postseason expenses.
A player is entitled to that experience without having to pay a penny.
Other than that core experience, the program feels that it is important to do other optional things to keep our program strong.
If we work together to raise money, we will be able to do things that go above and beyond a league schedule.  Optional expenses include things such as:
          - Quality uniforms (Two shirts, pants, shorts, hat, pullover)
          - A personalized golf bag for players to keep
          - Transportation to play in quality non-league matches
          - Entry fees in invitational tournaments
          - End of the year banquet
          - Team meals when we travel
In the past, we were able to meet most of these expenses thanks to the fundraiser efforts of our parents.  
We will have a meeting with all of the families at the conclusion of October tryouts to discuss ways that we can make this happen. 
If we are unable to raise the money, we can cut back our expenses.  (Fewer tournaments, less gear, etc.)
