The St. Olaf Golf program strives for excellence, whether it is on the course, in the classroom, or in living out the Christian faith. Members of the team, along with their coach and PGA Professional, Glen Peterson, have created the Southern Minnesota Golf Academy in order to share their love of golf with youth golfers ages 10 – 17.
The program is designed to expand participants’ knowledge of the game of golf. This will be achieved through private and group instruction, video analysis of the golf swing, course management skills, and on course playing instruction at the Summit Golf Club in Cannon Falls. Participants will stay in St. Olaf dormitories, engage in voluntary group devotions and fellowship, and further their knowledge and love of golf.
