Greetings members,
It is an honor to address you as the newly appointed President/Chairperson of our esteemed organization. First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt appreciation to the dedicated individuals who have tirelessly served on the board, as well as our immediate past president. Their hard work has laid a solid foundation upon which we can continue to build and thrive. Our organization is a collective effort, and I recognize that each of you, as coaches, holds a profound commitment to your respective institutions. I want to emphasize that this organization is yours – a platform for collaboration, growth, and collective achievement. In the past five years and with the establishment of our 501(c)3 status in 2020, we have achieved remarkable milestones.
As we stand at the intersection of tradition and progress, I invite you to join hands with me in pursuing excellence. Together, we will propel our organization to greater heights and continue to make a lasting impact on the world of collegiate golf.
Thank you for your unwavering dedication and support.
​
Leonard Smoot, President
