GOLF:

SWAC had an amazing turn out for the championship on Wednesday, September 14. We had 38 male and female golfers from 8 different schools take part.  That is the biggest group of golfers we’ve had in recent memory.  

Thank you to Tyson Krause for being commissioner of the event and Maple Creek for being the host site.  Maple Creek golf course was in awesome shape and the volunteers Tyson organized were top notch.

SWAC can send four girls and four boys to SHSAA provincials.  Swift Current golfers took the top four places, in each category, after 18 holes of play.  The SCCHS golfers, and coach Karin Langendoen, will represent SWAC at the provincial competition in Wapiti (Melfort) on September 23/24.  Congratulations and Good Luck!!
