It's here. The thing we all have been waiting a long time for. Ok maybe not all of us, but I sure have. The newest recreational game in Auburn is foot golf, and I can't wait to play. I got absurdly excited when I heard. Like Chandler Bing excited.

What is FootGolf?

FootGolf is an exciting blend of soccer and golf. It really is exactly what it seems like, with it being basically playing golf but instead of clubs and a small golf ball, you use your foot and a soccer ball. The hole is usually about 21 inches in diameter. You might think of this a just a field with a hole, but the developers of these course are really looking to design the courses like golf courses, to make it a more interesting experience.

Where is it?

You can find a few courses in some random places, but because this sport is so new they are pretty rare. This is why it's so exciting that one just opened here in Auburn! The course here can be found at The Greens down on South College. You bring your own ball or rent one there for $4. The course is 18 holes over 2,228 yards. Each hole is marked with a colored flag, with red being a par 3, white is par 4, and blue is par 5. Cost is $14 for adults and $8 for juniors (16 and under).

So Who's Ready To Go?

Whether you have some people who really want to get competitive, or a group just looking for something fun and different to do, this game will definitely be something completely brand new for people. I'm guessing since it's kicking a soccer ball, normal golf attire isn't expected, so I will be showing up in athletic shorts and a tee ready to play as soon as I have time.

Take some friends, grab a ball, and go try it out!
