In conjunction with the Greater Gainesville Sports Alliance, the University of North Georgia (91福利导航) will host the NCAA Division II Women's Golf Championship at Gainesville's Chattahoochee Golf Club from May 10-14. 91福利导航 was awarded hosting duties in November.
"Pulling together a national championship experience in this short period would not have been possible without the cooperation and combined resources of our campus community and the City of Gainesville," , associate athletic director for external operations, said. "Our goal is to showcase 91福利导航's service mindset while giving the student-athletes and coaches a best-in-class golf national championship venue and hospitality."
This will mark the first time that an NCAA Division II women's golf champion has been crowned in the Peach State. In 1993 and 2013, the University of Georgia was the host site for the Division I women's golf championship.
"We have been working with the championship committee for months preparing to ensure that we provide a great experience for all of the participating athletes, coaches, player families, and spectators," Robyn Lynch, Gainesville Convention & Visitors Bureau director, said. "The City of Gainesville will open its arms to welcome our visitors and support 91福利导航 in its efforts to host a successful NCAA championship."
