[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Marcus Freeman shares why "leading by example" isn't enough.

"We don't love leaders by example. Because leaders by example are guys that do what they're told to do, they do everything they're asked, right?"

"But they don't say things when their teammates aren't reaching the standard. We can't have that."

Real leadership isn't just performing at the standard. It's protecting the standard.

"We need more leaders. Guys that are willing to hold their teammates accountable because it's gonna make your teammate better."

Accountability isn't about being hard on people. It's about caring enough to not let them settle.

"I wanna make everybody in our organization the best they possibly can be. So if I let you cut corners or I don't say something to you when you're falling under the standard, then I'm not helping push you to the best you can be."

Leading by example is the baseline.
Leading with accountability is the standard.

Super-Scratch awarded $150,00+ in scholarships to future superintendents in 2025 alone. With your help, we can continue to grow that amount, impacting students who will become leaders in the industry.

[Nick Roth @Rothturf]

There’s not a more deserving person in the turf industry to receive this scholarship than Jack. He exemplifies what it means to be a team player and exudes passion every single day through his work. We couldn’t be more proud of what he has accomplished in his career thus far!

[The Super Scratch Foundation, Inc. @SSCF_Foundation]

The industry has already opened doors for @MSUTurf @TurfState student, Jack Judge. We're proud to support young leaders like Jack as they shape the future of golf course management.

[Fried Egg Golf @fried_egg_golf]

While golf’s popularity has boomed in recent years, a troubling trend has been bubbling under the surface: the turf industry is struggling. Not with its practices, but its pipeline of talent.

In today's newsletter, @willknightsTFE wrote about the importance of work being done behind the scenes at golf courses across the country and how the @SSCF_Foundation is helping the turf industry.

[Will Knights @willknightsTFE]

Turf school enrollment has dropped 75% in less than 20 years. At the same time, the golf industry has done very little to help reinforce the talent pipeline for turf programs. Groups like @SSCF_Foundation are trying their best to correct that trend

Grateful for the opportunity to share our story with two great groups of future turfgrass professionals! Can’t say enough good things about the programs at HGTC. I’m may be biased because we have 3 graduates and one former employee in the program..@huntoonjmsc

[HGTC Golf & Sports Turf Management @HGTCGSTM]

@Rothturf and @MichaelJMilburn came to campus today. They gave two presentations on “Building the Tree Farm” so that both @gohgtc GSTM classes and @USGAGrnSection GAP students could adsorb the knowledge and experiences they shared. Thanks to both for their willingness to educate.
