Golf (Coed)

Since 1970, when the golf program was established, Deerfield has had a very successful record in golf.  We have traditionally fielded two teams in the spring, varsity and junior varsity.  Each team consists of eight players, and matches normally follow a stroke play format with the best five scores counting out of six. While most of the present members of the program are boys, we encourage girls to become involved as well. Our schedule is a challenging one, with the varsity team playing in two major tournaments each year, the eight-team Andover Invitational Tournament played at the Newport Country Club, and the 23-team Kingswood Oxford Invitational Tournament at the end of the season.

Deerfield golfers practice on the Crumpin-Fox golf course, a Robert Trent Jones design annually ranked in the top three public courses in New England by a variety of golf publications. For more information contact coach Nick Albertson at nalbertson@deerfield.edu.

Nick Albertson (Head Coach)

After graduating from Brown University with a degree in American Studies, Nick Albertson taught history for five years at Jacksonville Episcopal High School in Jacksonville, FL, before joining the Deerfield faculty in 1978 as a member of the History Department. He has served as a college advisor for 32 years, and earned an MA in Liberal Studies from Dartmouth in 1984. Nick's three daughters are proud graduates of Deerfield, and he cross-country skis and plays paddle tennis with them at every opportunity.

Nick also coaches golf and football. He coached Deerfield’s golf team to its first undefeated season in 2005 and again in 2006. The group posted an 11-0-1 record over the course of the spring and won the Kingswood-Oxford Tournament at season's end. In 2000, the squad also won that tournament.
