High-tech golf driving range coming to Cherokee County

In the summer of 2027, Cherokee County golfers will be able to refine their skills at a high-tech practice range and golf academy that’s scheduled to open in Woodstock by late July. RangeWorks, located at 1465 Woodstock Parkway, is under construction now on a 3.5-acre lot adjacent to The Outlet Shoppes of Atlanta complex. Founder and owner George Mattingly says RangeWorks will combine the best aspects of outdoor golf ranges where shots are hit into open fields and indoor facilities where golfers hit balls directly into screens that use technology to provide feedback on the distance, direction and quality of shots. “We want to be in between the traditional range and the screen experience where the ball travels only about 10 feet before hitting a screen,” Mattingly said. “I want my patrons to have more ball flight and more of an organic experience than just hitting the screen.” A golfer practicing from one of RangeWorks’ 32 practice bays will see his or her shots travel about 80 yards before making contact with a screen that will send instant feedback on the shot’s performance to a screen at the practice bay. “So you experience the flight of the ball, and then

Pope's O'Sullivan moving from sideline to AD

Pope football coach Sean O’Sullivan is trading one job on campus for another, completing a longtime goal in the process. O’Sullivan stepped down as his coaching post to take over as the school’s full-time athletic director. He will follow interim AD Lindsay Barnette and former longtime AD Josh Mathews, who left at the end of the 2025-26 school year to become the associate director of athletics at the First Academy in Orlando, Florida. The move was approved Thursday by the Cobb County School Board. “I am excited for the opportunity to lead this program for the school and the community,” O’Sullivan said. “The foundation is there and I know it will be my job to keep us at the current high level of success.” O’Sullivan said the AD role is a job he had as a career goal, but just not quite so soon. He said he was hoping to potentially move toward the position in six to 10 years from now, but the opening sped up the timeline, and when he thought about it, he said now turned out to be the right time. “Josh did an unbelievable job,” O’Sullivan said. “Any time you take over for someone who

Hillgrove hits road but peaking at right time

Hillgrove and Peachtree Ridge enter the first round of the state playoffs with 7-3 records, but the final stretch of their regular seasons couldn’t have been much more different. The Hawks have won four in a row and six of their last seven, while Peachtree Ridge has lost three of its last four and is coming off a 51-3 loss to Brookwood. Missing in that game were quarterback Zain Belfield and running back August Hall, which Hillgrove coach Justin Deshon said was a big component in Peachtree Ridge’s late-season struggles. “I think it’s the start of a new season, especially with us going there,” Deshon said. “Part of the reason they’ve struggled as of late is they’ve had just a litany of injuries, so we expect some of those guys to get back on the field from some of the injuries they’ve had. "We expect the best version of them. They were a really, really dynamic football team early in the season when they were all the way healthy.” For the Hawks, October went smoothly. They defeated Harrison, another Cobb County frontrunner 35-26, and nearly beat McEachern in a close 27-24 contest for their only loss in region play. Before

Peachtree Ridge hosts Hillgrove in state football opener

Peachtree Ridge’s success early in the football season not only brought a state playoff berth, but also a first-round home game Friday against Hillgrove. The Lions, who started 6-0, have lost three of four, though all three were to state playoff teams — No. 4 seed Brookwood, No. 6 North Gwinnett and No. 29 Norcross. It eked out a 40-34, double-overtime win over Duluth to avoid a four-game losing streak. Both of the past two games — the win over Duluth and the loss to Brookwood — were played without starting quarterback Zain Belfield. Despite last week’s setback against Brookwood, the Lions got standout defensive play from R.J. Parks (13 tackles, two for losses, two sacks), Britt Finley (13 tackles) and Donovan Macombe (10 tackles). Cayden Macon was a bright spot on a slow offensive night with four catches for 56 yards. Manny Jimenez made his only field goal attempt, a 45-yarder, and punted seven times for a 39.4-yard average. Hillgrove closed its regular season a hot streak with four straight victories with two over state playoff teams, No. 23 Harrison and No. 27 North Atlanta.

Woodstock selects new companies for playground renovations

The city of Woodstock has selected different companies to renovate its downtown playground. On Monday, the Woodstock City Council unanimously voted to repeal a $438,961 agreement between the city and Great Southern Recreation for renovations to Woodstock's Downtown Playground. The agreement, approved in July, was for the second phase of playground revovations, including the addition of a Moku-Yama 11.1 Play Structure , drainage work, landscaping and installing 2,500 square feet of artificial turf. According to city documents, city staff started getting quotes from different contractors after there were problems with the company’s work on the Little River Park playground, and after they learned the company purchased playground equipment without a signed agreement to do so. “On August 18, 2026, the City prepared Purchase Order 27-013510 for $438,961.00 to Great Southern Recreation and issued the document to the Parks and Recreation Department. As of October 28, 2026, this document has not been sent to Great Southern Recreation nor is there a signed agreement for services with the City and Great Southern Recreation for the renovation of the Downtown Playground,” a city staff report reads in part.
