“What separates good players from great ones
is not so much ability as brain power and emotional equilibrium.”
– Arnold Palmer
Welcome to Diamond Ranch Academy, home of the Diamondback Golf Team! Our golf team is a great addition to our sports programs here at Diamond Ranch. Our student golfers are privileged to enjoy the immaculate Sand Hollow golf course, located just 1.5 miles from campus, ranked #1 in Utah and #47 in the nation. As well as having this incredible golf course to play on, Diamondback golfers are instructed by a PGA Apprentice and Assistant Professional Instructor. Students are allowed to refine their skills while learning valuable life lessons through their involvement in the team.
