The Largest Grant in MSF History

$25,000 to Build Something New

In 2025, Finding FairWays was approved for a $15,000 grant from the Mamaroneck Schools Foundation — the largest grant in MSF's history — along with an additional $10,000 from the athletic department.

Over the following year we worked with vendors and partnered with brands including Foresight Sports and Bushnell to design and install a first-of-its-kind golf simulator at the Post Road gym. The system features an enclosure that lowers and transforms down from the ceiling, housing two full hitting bays when in use.

We cut the ribbon in June 2026, capping off a process that began with approval in 2025 and carried through construction into 2026. The simulator gives our whole athletic program — not just Finding FairWays — year-round access to golf practice no matter the weather or season.

Who It Serves

Built for the Whole Program

Varsity Golf Teams

Boys' and girls' varsity golf practice and train here year round, including the off-season and during bad weather, with equal access for both programs.

Finding FairWays

The program uses the simulator as a core part of its coaching and outreach work with middle school students.

PE Classes

Physical education classes at the high school are planned to get hands-on golf instruction using the same setup down the line.

Future Plan

Housed at the Post Road gym at Mamaroneck High School, the simulator's enclosure lowers down from the ceiling when in use and retracts back up when not needed, so the gym stays flexible for other activities and sports.
