Golf tryouts will begin on August 1.

Registration is now closed. Tee times for tryouts will be posted soon. 

Thank you for your consideration and desire to try out for the 2020 Saint Ignatius Golf Program. We look forward to a very successful season where student-athletes can learn life skills as well as compete at a high level. As of now, it does appear the OHSAA golf season will take place. If any changes are made, we will do our very best to notify you all as quickly as possible. Please take a moment to read below before registering for the tryout.

*Safety Note: Due to COVID-19, any students trying out for the team will need to practice appropriate social distancing. Please supply your own mask if you choose to wear one. In order to practice safe social distancing, we ask that players show up no more than 20 minutes before their team time to limit congregating on the putting green. Coaches ask that any warm-ups take place offsite before the round. After the round, we will review and collect scorecards (2 signature on each card) and ask that the players leave immediately after their round and refer to the Saint Ignatius Golf Webpage (ignatiuswildcats.com/golf) for daily results and next round tee times.

*Important Player Guideline Note: Given the highly competitive nature of our golf program, we strongly encourage any players trying out to have an official USGA Handicap under a 15.0 index, a strong competitive tournament background, and be able to consistently shoot in the mid 80’s in tournament play. In addition, all players must be schooled in and adhere to the USGA Rules of Golf. https://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/rules/rules-2019/rules-of-golf/rules-and-interpretations.html#!ruletype=pe&section=rule&rulenum=1

*Special Note: There will be a cut after each day as we narrow down the number of players for our final roster of 18 players. Due to the limited number of tee times we are able to secure, the maximum number of players able to tryout will be 36. This will be on a first come first serve basis so please register quickly.

Registration will close on July 15 in an effort to allow coaches to make appropriate pairings and plan for safety measures related to COVID.
