About the
Program
The Bowdoin College golf team was instituted in the
early 1900's and is one of the school's longest-
running
varsity teams. The squad has enjoyed a rich tradition
of success, competing well at the State and Regional
level.
The Polar Bears play between 7-8 events each fall season, mostly in the State of Maine- one of the most underrated golf locations in the country. Winners of numerous CBB and Maine State Championships, the team also competes at the NESCAC Tournament against their traditional conference rivals. The College sponsors both a men's and women's team, and carries from 10-15 players.
2007 Recap
The Polar Bear women enjoyed a strong fall campaign in
2007 under first-year coach Stacy Wilson. Bowdoin
played in four tournaments, highlighted by a
season-ending scramble at the Brunswick Golf Course, in
which Bates edged Bowdoin by three strokes. With a
young and energetic squad, the future of the women's
golf program at Bowdoin is extremely bright.
Facilities
The Polar Bears play their home matches at Brunswick
Golf Club. The challenging, par-72 layout is
considered
by many to be the best course in Mid-Coast Maine. Just
a par-five away from campus, the course gives the
Bowdoin squads ample opportunities for practice and
play and is also open to the public. For more
