Download or read book Golf and the Law written by Thomas H. Sawyer and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sport of golf is a popular choice for individuals looking to spend their increased free time. Golf is viewed as both a recreational and competitive sport; however, many sports and recreation professionals are not aware of the risks posed by the sport of golf. This lack of awareness creates a false sense of security for professionals and recreational golfers. The risks (e.g. personal injury, property damage, real estate issues, employment concerns, and discrimination) often result in litigaton that is costly in both time and money. This litigation can often be prevented through sound risk management practices and programs. Every golf course is a complex business venture with corresponding complex business-related problems. These problems typically include real estate issues, employment matters, premises liability, discrimination, and negligence. Golf and the Law assists golf course managers in avoiding lawsuits and preventing needless personal injury and property damage. The book is divided into two major sections. The first section reviews a number of important legal concepts and relates each concept to the management of a golf course. The second section specifically outlines common types of litigation that have been aimed at golf courses. Finally, the book outlines a variety of risk management strategies to assist the golf course manager in making the golf course a safe place for participants, employees, and neighbors. "Throughout the work [Sawyer] offers advice on avoiding liability by instituting proper risk management procedures. In extensive appendixes readers will find checklists, sample forms, and other useful information for the golf course manager." -- Legal Information ALERT

Download or read book Raised by the World written by Vincent Kabaso PGA and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-10-14 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raised By The World is an adventurous book about hope, perseverance, passion, and grit. It recounts Vincent’s passionate journey of self-discovery which began when his dad introduced him to golf. Until then, he was an uninspired boy hunting for birds and mice with prospects limited to the confines of this economically depressed rural Zambian town. When he emerged as a young golfing prodigy and decided to pursue a career in golf, it introduced him to a new world of opportunity, but at the same time, it began a pursuit of happiness journey whose questions don’t have immediate answers and every step forward breaks traditional norms in this developing African country with fewer than 5000 golfers and 20 golf courses. Learning invaluable life lessons while enduring unimaginable predicaments along the way, he shares his exhilarating journey culminating to the moment he earned membership to the Professional Golfers Association of America. Raised by the World is a compelling, inspirational book from a leader who from humbled beginnings and against all odds has weathered storms with higher stakes than most people will ever encounter. Challenge, change and commitment flow from Raised by the World. This book is about Vincent Kabaso’s still unfolding story- both the heartaches he has faced, and the many accomplishments he has had—from his roots in Africa to his journey to America. A must-read book for anyone serious about learning some of the best traits possible and taking incredible risks to better their lives. — Major General Steven J Hashem (US Army, Ret.) I am so glad that Vincent has poured himself and his efforts into writing Raised by the World, it truly is an amazing story worth every minute of the read. From the first time we met back in 2013 on the campus of Methodist University, I knew this young man was something special. Vincent had already defied the odds of so many young people from Zambia and utilized golf as a way to escape the hardships his family endured. He wanted to see the world and make it a better place. During his time with us in the PGA Golf Management Program we saw his passion for the game and love for the Lord never waiver, despite what would be another major setback when losing his financial backing due to political and economic turmoil back home. His positive attitude and persistence were a true testament to the students in our program. -Bob Bruns, PGA/Director Methodist University PGA Golf Management Program
