In this episode, I sit down with Junior Golf Hub President, Greg Flynn. Greg, an avid golfer and former college player himself, was asked by his good friend and PGA Teaching Professional, Roger Knick, to bring his idea to life and operationalize the Junior Golf Hub. Greg, who is extremely passionate about junior golf decided to leave the corporate finance business after 15 years and is now in charge of daily operations at The Hub.
Greg and I dive deep into the college recruiting process and discuss the many challenges that players face throughout the process. Greg explains how the Junior Golf Hub can bridge the gap between Player and Coach. The Junior Golf Hub is an online community for junior golfers, parents, and coaches based out of Ridgefield, CT.
Golf is a very competitive sport, even more so when it comes to College Recruiting. With such a deep talent pool in Junior Golf, getting noticed by a College Coach or Golf Program is not an easy task. For a junior golfer or high school player to stand out from the crowd, they need to differentiate themselves by highlighting their own talents, stats, abilities, academics, etc. These parameters are searchable by Coaches when seeking future team prospects.
Every Player and every College program is different and has different needs. This is where Junior Golf Hub comes in, their unique system allows both Players and Colleges to create individual profiles, that can then be filtered when searching and determining the best fit for them. This new approach to college golf recruiting will revolutionize the recruiting process as we know it by implementing modern technology and blending it with a social media platform.
