During my time at Golf Canada, I embraced the opportunity to make our Amateur Championships more prestigious and professional. Major focus was improving how we conduct the business in all areas of the operations such as; Host site evaluation, sponsor development, player correspondence, host committee structure and guidance, improved execution with team travel, more organization around the ceremonial aspects within the event. Our event participation and the quality of competitor was extremely high during that time.Our staff developed the Future Links Junior Series to create a level of competition not seen in Canada before. The natural progression into a Jr Ranking System was also created by our department to reward juniors properly across Canada for their results. One of the many goals was to give juniors a platform to gain exposure to college golf coaches in the United States. Other areas of focus during my time at Golf Canada included: Developed and implemented operations manual for our Amateur Championships Helped develop the Rules of Golf teaching program and conducted a number of work shops Helped develop a quota system to determine the players in the Canadian Jr. Successfully built relationships with players, sponsors, Committees and club representatives
