First Tee-Indiana hosted its first Indiana Leadership Day on June 6th at Purdue University. Modeled after First Tee National opportunities, 12 Indiana participants were selected from applications to spend a day interacting with their peers through several leadership activities. Purdue Men’s Golf Coach Andrew Sapp talked with them about improving your mindset for practicing, Athletic Department staff members Paul Leaf and Peyton Stovall brought a team to play games teaching collaboration and how to be a great teammate.
After lunch at the Purdue Memorial Union, the Boilermaker Special mascot train took the group on a tour of campus, taking pictures along the way and stopping at a local favorite ice cream shop. The day ended with practice and nine holes of play on the Ackerman Allen Course at the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex.
