University of Florida Golf Clinic - Do it Again in January 2020!

While I worked for six hours at the plant, Ford and AA drove to Gainesville for the UF Golf Clinic.
Addie Baggarly assisted during the clinic and Ford and AA spoke to Lauren Waidner (here's the link to both their signing article to the University of Florida Women's Golf program).
Head Coach Emily Glaser and assistant Janice Olivencia divided the girls into two groups, the younger girls were with Janice (age 12 - 15), the older girls up to age 16 were with Emily.
The afternoon, playing the front nine holes (closed to the public), AA was partnered with two sisters, Ellie and Ava and third, Celce (unknown spelling). AA was one of two youngest in the clinic; one other 6th grader (the other 6th grader looked older as she was a head taller than AA, but both are in the same grade). 
Ford spoke of AA's best putt on Hole 7, was hard shot, off the green, speed got her close, but she did end up three-putting. Can't wait until she goes again next year!

Ford and AA also were impressed with the Athlete Program housed in a private building for all 500 athletes, including a life skills coach to maximize their time, plus tutors, counselors, study areas, lounge, also housed "grab and go" food, sport drinks area (sports nutrition program), all at no charge, all free - a $125 million yearly program for Athletes.
