Bob Feller “Coach of the Year”

Our Golf Pro, Bob Feller

Introduction:

At Reedsburg Country Club, We’re not just about hitting the greens; we’re also dedicated to nurturing the future of the sport. RCC’s staff and volunteers demonstrate this through their dedication and hard work.

Reedsburg Country Club’s PGA Golf Pro, Bob Feller, is a beaming example. The First Tee of South Central Wisconsin has awarded Bob Feller the “Coach of the Year” title for 2023. This recognition results from his dedication and hard work in growing the game and impacting young lives.

The First Tee Journey: A Milestone Achievement:

Reedsburg Country Club joined forces eight years ago with The First Tee chapter. Their goal was to revamp their youth golf program, which had existed for 20 years.

Don, Barbara Carrig, and Doris Feller generously supported this collaboration. We teamed up with The First Tee of South Central Wisconsin to start a program for young people. It teaches them the basics of golf and helps them learn important values like discipline, respect, and sportsmanship. At the same time, we are creating a feeling of inclusivity and community within our youth.

Over the years, the program has doubled, serving approximately 150 kids today. This initiative has made a massive difference in Reedsburg and the surrounding area, thanks to the hard work of Bob Feller.

How Bob Feller Steers the Ship:

Bob’s coaching focuses on teaching golf and life skills, making it well-rounded, fun, and comprehensive. Bob believes that golf is more than just a game; it is a pathway to greatness.

Bob also thinks golf is a valuable tool for young people to learn essential life lessons. These lessons can benefit them in various aspects of their lives. Bob’s impact goes beyond golf skills; it shapes the students’ character and motivates them to become improved individuals.

The Role of RCC Members & Volunteers. The Backbone of Success:

While Bob’s leadership has been instrumental in the program’s achievements, there are many to thank. Our efforts would only be complete if we noticed the considerable role played by the members of Reedsburg Country Club.

Our members have always supported this program in various ways. They volunteer as mentors, provide financial help, and are always energetic cheerleaders for the kids.

The RCC members and the Carrig Foundation have been instrumental in the program’s success. Don and Barbara Carrig have played a crucial role in the program’s success. Without them and their generous donations, the program wouldn’t be where it is today.

The RCC members have also played a crucial role in the program’s success. They have worked alongside Pro Jason Diekfuss and former students who now assist with teaching. Together, they have created a nurturing environment for young golfers to flourish.

The journey from 8 years ago to now has been a team effort, with everyone contributing, and our hearts are full of thanks.

Congratulations to Bob Feller for his deserved recognition, and we thank all our members for supporting this initiative. Join us in celebrating Bob’s achievement and supporting our efforts to improve golf in the Reedsburg community.

A Look Forward:

We invite you to be part of our growth and success, whether you’re a seasoned golfer or new to the game. Your involvement can make all the difference.
