Do you play a sport for leisure? Have you ever played golf before? Have you seen someone play golf? If you answered yes to these questions, then you must be interested in what golf can offer you. According to Golf Advisor, golf originated in the eastern coast of Scotland in the Kingdom of Fife during the fifteenth century. Some historians believe that the games kolven from Holland and chole from Belgium influenced the game.
Eventually, it spread throughout the sixteenth century due to royal endorsement. King Charles I popularized the game in England while Mary, Queen of Scots, introduced the game to France while she was studying there.
Today, golf is a popular club-and-ball sport worldwide. Whether the players are professional or not, golf is a sport that is often associated with high social status. Aside from the fame and the glamor of golf, it also offers important mental and physical benefits to every player. Here are some of the essential gains brought about by playing golf regularly as mentioned by the European Institute of Golf Course Architects.  Indoor putting green is a good thing for practice golf inside your apartment area 
Reduces Stress Levels
A golf course is typically characterized by green landscapes, fresh air, and a clear view of the sky. This is indicative of a restorative environment. Such an environment can facilitate feelings of pleasure and allows the release of mood-enhancing chemicals in the brain (e.g., endorphins). Golf makes you happier and relaxed rather than stressed and exhausted.
Improves Sleep
Regular physical exercise, such as in the case of playing golf frequently, enhances sleep. It allows your body to stay in a deep sleep for a longer time and helps your muscles rest and repair in the process.
Fosters Relationships
Social connections can improve both mental and physical health. Golf is a socially enjoyable sport. Once you play golf, you will be able to interact more with other golf players. You can even become a member of a golf community or group. You can also bring your family and friends to play golf with you.

Skateboarding and Longboarding on and Around Campus

Even though alternative transportation is rampant on Whitman’s small campus, only a handful of Whitman students skateboard. Whether longboarding to class or skating for leisure, those who own boards on campus represent a small fraction of the student body. Whitman’s campus isn’t exactly ideal for the sport. For skateboarding you mainly just need an open, rarely frequented area with various obstacles and terrain. If there is a skatepark nearby, obviously that is a large draw, but for Whitman students, the nearest park is in College Place.
