Every coach likes a well-rounded player who gives back for the opportunity they have been given to play the game of golf. Some school organizations have you complete so many hours of volunteer work but go beyond that and volunteer on your on time. I know schedules can get very busy with school and golf but try to find time once a month, once a quarter or around the holidays. This will not only be a great addition to your resume but it will also give you a great perspective on life.
I became a Big Sister through the Big Brother Big Sister organization about 5 years ago and I can personally say that it has made a huge impact in my life. I also walk dogs at the Humane Society every week which is a great place for young kids to volunteer to help with the puppies and cats. There are many different ways you can volunteer that fit one of your interests or talents. Below are a few organizations and ideas for ways to volunteer.
- Big Brother Big Sister
- Meals on Wheels
- First Tee
- LPGA-USGA Girls Golf
- Humane Society
- Angel Tree at Christmas
- Church
- Nursing Home
