Dr. Beverly Harrison Honored with 2024 Sandy LaBauve Spirit Award

Dr. Beverly Harrison made a name for herself in the field of law, but for those who know her best, what she has done in her career pales in comparison to what she has done for girls through golf.

That’s because for nearly 20 years, Harrison has empowered hundreds of girls as the site director of LPGA*USGA Girls Golf of Greater Newark.

This dedication to developing future generations of women is just one of the many reasons why Harrison has been honored with the 2024 Sandy LaBauve Spirit Award.

Named after the founder of LPGA*USGA Girls Golf, the Sandy LaBauve Spirit Award honors an individual who has gone above and beyond to inspire the lives of juniors through their passion and dedication to empowering girls through golf. LaBauve was an LPGA Teaching Professional in Phoenix, Arizona, and a mother of two daughters when she founded Girls Golf in 1989.

We are so excited and proud to congratulate Coach Beverly. Please click here to see the entire tribute with a full write up and videos!
