The 2008-2009 season was John Dansby’s first season assisting the Lady Chaparrals golf program, and he moves into the role as the head women’s coach beginning with the 2009-2010 season.

The role for Dansby will not be that unfamiliar of a role.  He spent from 1999-2008 at nearby Lubbock Christian School as the Secondary Principal and head boy’s and girl’s varsity golf coach.  Under his guidance, the LCS program garnered six state championships, seven individual state champions and numerous district and regional championships.

Dansby is a native of Las Cruces, New Mexico.  He earned a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration in 1985 from Eastern New Mexico University, and then completed a Masters Degree in School Administration from College of the Southwest in 1998.  His first coaching position was with Eunice High School (Eunice, New Mexico) in 1993, serving as the boy’s and girl’s varsity golf coach.  Dansby was with Eunice High School until moving to Lubbock Christian School in 1999.

John and his wife Michele have five children: Leah (21), Rachael (19), Jonathan (16), Joshua (14) and Caleb (11).  Leah and Rachael have each tee’d it up for the Lady Chaps golf program.
