West Central Valley golf teams beginning practice in less-than-perfect weather are prepared to deal with the cold conditions. Boys Coach Jim Leavell and Girls Coach Traca Waddell shared strategies for avoiding or battling through inclement weather on the links.

Coach Leavell says technology and alternative drills play a role in getting the team in good shape despite the spring chill. Coach Waddell adds that it is important to remember that the weather will be what it will be and playing in all sorts of weather is a key part of being prepared for this years matchups.

The first meet of the season for both teams will be Friday, March 31 at the 50 X 80 Golf Club at 4:00p.m. against Knoxville and Clarke.
