Golf is a cut sport. Typically teams hold 6-7 players on Varsity and JV depending on level of golfers who tryout. No guarantee that there will be a JV team. Coaches decide who makes the team.  Decisions about who makes the team include but are not limited to: 1. Academic eligibility, 2. School attendance record, 3. Golf Skills, 4. Behavior and character, 5. Potential to make/contribute to Varsity.

Is golf a cut sport?

Yes. Space is limited on both JV and Varsity squads. Unfortunately we cannot open the team to all ability levels.

How can my student athlete prepare for tryouts?

Lessons, weekly practice, practice rounds, and junior tour events are the best preparation for trying out for the golf teams.

What does it take to make the Varsity squad?

A typical Varsity score will range from under par to under 40 for 9-holes. JV scores typically range from 40 to 45. One of the best ways to prepare for the competitive aspect is to participate in Southern California junior tournaments (AJGA, Toyota Tour Cup, Futures Tour, etc). Varsity players are expected to compete on a regular basis during the off-season.   The best way to think of the varsity team is that it is an AP Athletics class.

Where does Beckman typically practice/play?

Practices for both levels are held on a daily basis (in season) at Tustin Ranch GC. Home match competitions for the Varsity squad are held at Tustin Ranch while JV matches are held at Riverview GC. 

Does Golf take the place of a PE class?

If they make the team, yes it can. However the mandated two years of physical education must still be completed.  Please contact the Athletic Department and/or your counselor for more information on options and how to meet the PE requirements and participate in an athletic sport.

Is there a Summer Camp?

There are no mandatory camps or events. Athletes are instead encouraged to take lessons and compete in junior tournaments to develop competition experience.
