IIMSAGC has come a long way from its humble beginning, and it continues to strive to reach new heights by way of promoting the sport of golf among the B-school participants.
IIM Shillong has been hosting its flagship event “The IIM Shillong Golf Cup” since 2009, which has grown to reach new heights since its launch. After its inception in 2012, the IIM Shillong Amateur Golf Club (IIMSAGC) took it up as its mission to increase the interest of students, the faculty members, and the administrative staff in the game of Golf and make the IIM Shillong Golf Cup a bigger success in the successive years.
In addition to holding regular practice sessions for the students, the Golf Club, along with the Student Council of IIM Shillong, was responsible for the organization of the Innovative Corporate Engagement Meet in 2019, which was an even bigger success than its predecessors. The event saw several corporate houses taking part in the event, along with many dignitaries from the Government of Meghalaya and the Armed Forces, all of whom categorically appreciated the hard work put in by the Club to make the event smooth and tension-free.
Looking to the near future, among the many things that are currently in the pipeline, the Club plans to host “Paganica”- an online golf event for participants of all B-schools across India, as well as many smaller pre-events. In the light of Covid-19, ‘Anubhav 2021’ was conducted online with DIY miniature golf courses created by players at the comfort of their homes. The event saw some real talent display by the students of IIM Shillong, and was full of fun and follow-throughs.
In addition, this year the club is planning to execute a miniature golfing tournament within the premises of the Institute so as to give the faculty and students yet another reason to pick up the golf clubs and take their best swing forward.
It also hopes to move outside the bounds of the Institute and involve more local institutes and local golfers so as to meet its ultimate aim of the proliferation of the love and spirit of the game amongst the students.
All in all, IIMSAGC has come a long way from its humble beginning, and it continues to strive to reach new heights by way of promoting the sport of golf among B-school participants.
