Greetings from the MHSAA

Welcome!

On behalf of the MHSAA and member schools, welcome to the 2010 Provincial High School Golf Championships.  The golf season comes to a conclusion for over 1,100 student athletes, from across Manitoba.  Congratulations for achieving your goal of advancing to the Provincials.

We would like to extend a special thanks to our major partner, Golf Manitoba.  They have been enthusiastic supporters of high school golf from day one, and we appreciate their cooperation.  Thanks are also extended Al Patterson of Portage Collegiate and all of the volunteers for convening this championship as well as the Portage Golf & Country Club for hosting the provincials.

This has been a special year for Golf in Manitoba with the CN LPGA Canadian Open event recently held in Winnipeg.  The top female golfers from around the world were in attendance displaying their skills.  It was great to be able to see these young ladies in action.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank our major corporate partners, Dairy Farmers of Manitoba, Manitoba’s Credit Unions, Boston Pizza, Subway, MTS, Wilson Sports, Awards & More and Sport Manitoba. 

We hope that everyone has a great day, a great round, makes new friends, and achieves their personal best. 

Congratulations and best of luck.
