Sukkot for the Children of the Golf Academy
22 of the Golf Academy's children participated in the Sukkot Pairs Golf Tournament, with each pair being composed of an older Academy pupil alongside a new pupil. The tournament was played over two days and 36 holes.
Academy Director, Boaz Segev: "It was heartwarming to see the assimilation of the new children as well as the support and encouragement they received from the older pupils. Particularly commendable were Assaf Cohen and Peleg Geffen, two older pupils, who were paired with Ram Beinstock and Inbar Isu, who demonstrated their enthusiasm and support to them. This type of behavior helps the new pupils advance while increasing their confidence."
Below are the results of the tournament:
First place with 63 points - Assaf Cohen and Ram Beinstock
Second place with 62 points - Ben Friedrich and Dolev Thaler
