Golf Unit....

This week in P.E. class, the 7th and 8th grade students started their golf unit. On Monday, we worked on our stance and grip using irons. Today we are concentrating on the short game and practicing our putting skills. Everyone has been doing a great job so far and I'm looking forward to the field trips that conclude the unit.

On Thursday, the 7th grade students will travel to Zigfield Troy Golf Course and practice at the driving range. This will only take place during your P.E. period. Each student usually has enough time to hit one bucket of golf balls.

On Friday, the 8th grade class will travel to Zigfield Troy and spend about three hours at the course. Those students who play golf outside of school and who are mature enough to take on the course will be grouped into foursomes and will play the 9-hole course. All other 8th graders will split their time between the driving range and the mini golf course.

CONGRATULATIONS to both the Varsity and Junior Varsity volleyball teams on their victory last night over Lisle! Both teams have been playing great ball with outstanding teamwork. Our next game will be on Thursday, 9/24 @ Butler. The next home game is on Monday next week against Jefferson. Come on out and show your support! Go Spartans!!!
