Designed to serve as a hub for performance, training, and recognition, the clubhouse features a Championship Lobby showcasing all 33 titles earned collectively by the men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams. The space also includes dedicated offices for coaches, two TrackMan hitting simulators, a cutting-edge PuttView studio, a fitness and rehabilitation area, a versatile meeting room, and a modern student-athlete lounge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re incredibly excited to open this stunning new clubhouse,\u201d said Drew Howard, Director of Athletics and Dean of Wellness at Florida Southern College. \u201cFlorida Southern golf has a proud tradition of competitive excellence and a longstanding partnership with Lone Palm Golf Club. This new space not only honors that legacy\u2014it secures it for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The building also honors two influential figures in the program\u2019s history: the pro-style locker rooms have been named in recognition of Robbie Davis, women\u2019s golf head coach and Doug Gordin, former men\u2019s golf head coach\u2014each known for their leadership, mentorship, and lasting contributions to Florida Southern\u2019s national success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThanks to the generous support of our alumni and donors, we\u2019ve built something that will elevate our programs and help us attract the very best student-athletes to Florida Southern College,\u201d Howard added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
