Lamkin to Provide Free Grips to College Teams

Lamkin introduced a new College Support program that will provide free golf grips to Div. I, II coaches

San Diego, CA (March 21, 2011) --As a co- sponsor of the 2011 San Diego Inter-Collegiate Championship, held at the San Diego Country Club on March 14-15, Lamkin Grips kicked off its new collegiate support initiative by offering premium grips and grip installation to all members of the 12 teams in attendance. Lamkin took advantage of the event to introduce a new College Support program that will provide free golf grips to all coaches of Division I and II college teams.

“I’m passionate about this program because it allows us to give something back to the players and coaches who work so hard to maintain the integrity of this great game,” said CEO Bob Lamkin.

Lamkin Grips is an equal opportunity provider. Its newest initiative is available to any eligible Division I and II women’s golf teams as well. Coaches who are interested in receiving new grips can select from any of Lamkin’s current grips and then send their request directly to Lamkin.

Maintaining and upgrading a player’s grips is a critical component for all golfers, but is especially important at the collegiate level with such a high number of rounds played. At last weekend’s San Diego Intercollegiate Classic, where local powers San Diego State (ranked No. 6 nationally) and the University of San Diego (No. 19) finish third and fourth, respectively, the field was ripe for an opportunity that only Lamkin Grips could provide.

“We’re always trying to educate golfers on the importance of regripping,” said Lamkin. “After 50-60 rounds, or about once a year for most golfers, clubs should be regripped. At the collegiate level, players are regripping much more often so providing free grips to their coaches is a great bonus!”
