Director of UD Golf and men’s head golf coach, Gip Hoagland shares “I want my athletes to have the best possible experience while they are here. If you give to our program, you will see the difference you make for those experiences. With college athletics, every little bit helps.” Even with this giant leap forward of the new Player Development Center, there are still ways donors can help current and future golfers avoid future bogies. One Day, One Dayton is the perfect day to help the program avoid sand traps, so to speak. https://lnkd.in/eZMvVMRQ

Every year, The Masters captivates audiences with its tradition, drama, and world-class competition. But what skills do players need to conquer Augusta National, one of golf's most challenging courses? ✔️ Mastering the Mental Game: The pressure at The Masters is immense. Players need exceptional focus, composure, and belief to navigate the demanding course and handle the high stakes. ✔️ Precision with Long Irons: Augusta National features many long par 3s and tight fairways. Accurate long iron play is crucial for finding greens in regulation and avoiding bogeys. ✔️ Short Game Wizardry: Delicate chips, precise putting, and bunker escapes are essential around Augusta National's fast greens and tricky slopes. Mastering the short game can save strokes and win tournaments. ✔️ Playing the Angles: Augusta National is known for its strategic layout. Understanding how to play each hole with creativity and course knowledge is key to success. Beyond these, strong fundamentals in grip, posture, and swing mechanics are the foundation for all golfers. With these skills in their arsenal, players battle for the coveted green jacket. Who will rise to the challenge at the next Masters? #TheMasters #GolfSkills #TournamentTough

As we celebrate Athletics In Our Schools Month this May, we recognize the importance of athletics in educational institutions and the unwavering dedication of student-athletes who excel in various track-and-field, road running, cross-country running, and racewalking events. We invite you to share your #Athleticsinschool stories with us! #2c2w would love to hear about it. The term 'athletics' originates from the Ancient Greek terms 'athlētēs' and 'athlon,' meaning 'competitor' and 'prize,' respectively. Today, athletics includes events such as the marathon, pole vault, long jump, discus, and 100-meter dash. The term 'athletic' can describe an individual's physical prowess, while 'athlete' refers to any sportsman or sportswoman. An 'athletic event' specifically refers to a competition involving track-and-field, road running, cross-country running, or racewalking events, which have evolved from humanity's most fundamental activities and are now recognized as the oldest forms of organized sport, with the potential to bring people together across cultures and borders. #2c2w #NYSPHSAA #psal #FiatLux #support2c2w #CNN #NBCSports #FoxNews

The sport of horseracing stands above all others as home to protagonists who, with equal gusto, both compete and enthusiastically share the positives of the game to the wider world for the benefit of all with an involvement. Simply preaching to the choir? In racing, a rarity indeed. Not least when three legs of perhaps next year’s Cheltenham Gold Cup winner have been sold with the fourth still up for grabs... Matt Chapman, a racing polymath with numerous broadcast awards, newspaper and online columns, and a growing portfolio of businesses with scope to enhance the pleasure that hoi polloi like me take from the game, undertook this missionary work at the Royal Automobile Club where I hosted him for autumn's leg of twice-yearly horseracing suppers. Even allowing for how well disposed the table was to the Turf, all seated were in an urban landscape far from the likes of Lambourn and Newmarket cognoscenti. Yet, Matt, who was heading to the latter the morning after proceedings for filming just after 6am, stayed well beyond the occasion’s witching hour in sharing the provenance and true depth of his racing passion. As he readily acknowledges, often with stoic self-deprecation, Chapman has his critics. This is partly because the demands of television’s strict time keeping require him to be perhaps more direct and to the point than some prefer. Given longer to expand on his views, more evident was the discernment you might expect of a Radley College music and sports scholar whom Cambridge considered worthy of offering an undergraduate place. Amid an emerging consensus at the table that ‘A’ Level grades below the required standard for top-ranked Varsity have ultimate been racing’s gain, there was a tip or two. Chatham House rule - and an aversion to seeing bookmakers shorten odds - means I can, with some reluctance, share only one; namely the Paul Nicholls-trained Thames Water. After all, has there ever been a name more appropriate to leak, and when the gelding wins all will have an opportunity to salute the aforementioned, when no one has had much good to say about Thames Water for a generation. #horseracing, #yeeehaaa, #royalautomobileclub With thanks to the club’s Marta Anna Jurga for being the ultimate events thoroughbred, and for Renato Pereira’s team for classic-race standard service. Thanks also to Henry Rose, mastertailor, for making a suit with Alice Milivoyevich’s award-winning Hackett London tweed. Joint favourites, all.

For my senior capstone class, Current and Ethical Issues in Sport and Recreation Management at Temple University taught by Jonathan Howe, we had to compose a presentation about different topics that occur in sport categorized into different workshops. For my workshop, I discussed NIL in College Athletics and how it exists in sport today. #NameImageLikeness #NCAA #Sport #TempleUniversity #PayToPlay
