My youngest plays golf as his sport, just played in our city tournament for the first time. The newspaper always does coverage of this, partly because there is no high school or college sports going on. This year we paid attention for the first time. Really nice that the reporter comes and interviews people, even the kids, and their quotes get into the paper.
It took me a while to become a baseball mom, and I now have to learn how to dress and act as a golf mom (it's different). Let me say that while people here complain about "the dad behind the backstop," you haven't seen anything until you've seen a mom/dad caddying for his/her son at a golf tournament. And no, I am definitely not that kind of mom!
