Geneva golfers have been competing since 1999. The goal of the team is to teach and encourage young athletes in the beautiful game of golf. We desire that each individual player grows and develops not just as a player but also learns lessons useful for the whole of life. The team competes at golf courses throughout the Orlando area with the home course at Winter Pines Golf Club. Ron Wood joined the coaching staff in 2018 and John Koestner in 2022. The boys golf program contends very well in the FHSAA tournament and the girls program continues to increase in numbers and competitiveness. We compete well, learn to play well, and have a good time doing it!

He also earned an associate’s degree in golf management from The Golf Academy of America in 1999.
