Golf is a challenging and humbling game. The goal for each BEHS golfer is to develop a lifelong love of the sport, improve his/her skill level, and compete for district and state championships. Most importantly, we want each student-athlete to become an honorable and hard-working young man/woman. We will demonstrate this every day in practice and at tournaments.
High school golf allows golfers to compete as individuals and teams. Since it is a competitive sport, the expectation is that every player will practice to improve their skills and course management. BEHS Golf is for student-athletes with a desire to practice with purpose and play golf in a competitive environment. Because we are a team, teamwork and unity will be stressed. We will encourage one another, and assist each other to improve our abilities and perform at the highest possible level.
One of the team goals is that we will be the most respectful and classiest team wherever we are. Whenever you are at a golf course, whether a coach is present or not, you are a Bonny Eagle High School golfer, which means that the BEHS Extra Curricular Code of Conduct and Student Code of Conduct apply at all times.
Golf is ultimately an individual sport that requires an extremely high skill level to perform at the highest level. In order to improve your skill level, you must be willing to work on your own in the off season.

BEHS Golf Team Expectations
I will play by the rules of golf, be honest and never cheat. Golf is unique because there is no referee. Players call penalties on themselves.
I will respect the golf course, my teammates and my opponents. This includes not throwing or banging golf clubs, or the use of profanity during the course of play or practice.
I will never give up and will compete on every shot. Maximum effort at all times is expected.
I will represent Bonny Eagle High School and myself with class at practice, in tournaments and wherever I go. I am a representative of BEHS, my team, my family, and ultimately myself.
I will commit to working as hard as I can to become the best golfer possible. Golf is a lifelong sport and is inherently challenging at every skill level.
I will not promote any type of distraction that can, or will take away from the team's goals, attitude, mental preparation, etc.
I will strive to be a leader on the course, in the classroom and at school, through my behavior and work ethic. Behavior and conduct are equally as important as ability.
