15 48 WAKE FOREST GOLF PROJECT Wake Forest Athletics Facility Renovation Wake Forest Golf has an unmatched tradition of excellence. Although twenty years ago an on-campus facility like the Jesse I. Haddock Golf Center was unique in college golf, Wake Forest must now reinvest in the facility to keep pace with the subsequent growth of collegiate practice complexes. Contributing to the Golf Project will enable Wake Forest to continue the dominance and legacy of the golf program. Wake Forest Golf Project Overview Wake Forest Golf has the opportunity to expand the on-campus golf facility onto the adjacent land currently occupied by the baseball stadium, offering the potential for a significant recruiting advantage. The new land would more than double the size of the current golf complex and allow more room for valuable amenities essential to maintaining a competitive edge. Planned facility improvements include: A state-of-the-art on-campus practice facility. A true home for the golf programs with locker rooms, meeting areas and coaches offices. An area to showcase the rich tradition and heritage of Wake Forest Golf. Providing a state-of-the-art practice facility The new facility, designed by the Arnold Palmer Design Company, will provide tremendous player development opportunities and invaluable amenities essential to maintaining a competitve edge. Providing a true home for Wake Forest Golf The renovated practice complex will feature a new house that will provide enough space to house both the men s and women s golf programs and will serve as a source of pride for all connected with the program. We desperately need this new practice complex to stay even more competitive and to help our students become champions. -Dianne Dailey
