In this episode of Shit My Dad Taught Me, we sit down with Garrett Ball, Chief Operating Officer of Golf Canada, former five time national lacrosse champion at Brock University, and a dedicated father of two, for a conversation about leadership, fatherhood, Canadian golf and the power of community.
Garrett shares his journey from competitive lacrosse and a career in accounting to helping lead one of Canada's most recognized sporting organizations. We discuss the development of Golf Canada's new headquarters at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley, the challenges of organizing major golf events, and the importance of teamwork, relationships and leadership in building a successful organization.
Beyond the world of golf, Garrett opens up about family life, coaching youth hockey and lacrosse, and the lessons he's learned from his parents. Together, we explore the challenges of raising children in today's digital world, the rising costs of youth sports, and why creating opportunities for young athletes is so important.
It's a conversation about balancing career and family, raising confident children, giving back to your community and building a legacy that extends far beyond professional success.
