Golf

South Kent's has been competing in golf since 2003. The partnership with Bull's Bridge Golf Club has allowed SKS to develop a competitive varsity golf team. The golf program is designed to develop an appreciation of the game in its players and provide a competitive match schedule.

Philosophy

The school believes in sportsmanship and the value of competition. Teamwork, dedication, hard work, and enjoyment; all these traits are necessary to excel in golf and in life.

A South Kent player respects the game, his teammates, opponents, and himself. A thirst for learning about the value of sports and the importance of enjoying every aspect of the experience is crucial to each player's development.

South Kent thrives on a challenge. Each boy learns to value the inherent lesson in adversity, while seeking solutions to problems. Athletes must display composure during challenging times in order to succeed, and South Kent athletes are no exception. The golf program looks to provide each student-athlete with the value of competition, the importance of consistent effort, and the love of the game.
