MARIO AND THE COACH

This is to describe is how much Coach Lloyd helped improve my golf game;  We met in October 2015 in Gulfport, Florida, and we’ve remained in contact since.  We play one round together, along with his friends, before he returned to Canada.  

He offered advice on putting and chipping.  I followed his putting practice routine--making three putts from 3', 6', 9', 12', 15', and son; furthermore, I followed his chipping advice and have seen recent success—most significant was winning our flight in a 3-day two-man best ball tournament at Avila Country Club in Tampa.  My chipping and putting were much improved after Coach Lloyd’s guidance.  My partner and I overcame a six-stroke lead going into the last day and won our flight.  I attribute my success to Coach Lloyd’s advice about being confident in my ball striking ability, working on putting and chipping, and finally, trusting his positive reinforcement about my game.  

Thanks, Coach Lloyd; you inspired me to new heights in my golf game, albeit at the local level.  

This years banquet -postponed

Hello Everyone,

This year is proving to be a challenge in time and dedication for the organizing of this year’s golf and friends tournament. I will not be able to give this year’s event the attention it deserves and am proposing to postpone this year’s event until 2017.

However, in the interim I am hoping there are those out there interested in participating in an organizing committee of 4 – 5 people to oversee the following;

>  Organizing a search for a new host Hotel and Banquet facility ( Embassy has closed down their banquet operations )

>  Organizing the Banquet event

>  Organizing the Meet and Greet and After Golf Awards Party

>  Organizing sponsorships, signage etc…

>  Organizing and selecting a suitable golf venue with  consideration of 2 flights ( fun mixed / competitive )

 

I am also suggesting that we look at sending out a survey ( survey monkey ) to all 2015 attendees that we have contact info for and ask everyone what they would envision in the future.

 

“ This is your event  “ as Lloyd would say ..so I am putting to you…

Thanks

Stephen Stern
