Each Spotter will be assigned to a group, and will follow along inside the ropes. At all times, they must know what each player lies and what player will be hitting next, which they will communicate back to the television truck via radio.
This role requires a very solid understanding of the rules of the game, good communication skills, and the ability to walk 18 holes each day. Spotters get to watch the action unfold up close, and there is no better seat in the house. They are integral to the success of our telecast!
The Golf Channel production team would prefer to have volunteers who can work all three days, but will welcome and train anyone who can help.
On the day(s) you volunteer, we will provide lunch for you, along with snacks and water. Please arrive early enough to account for parking, training, and setting up. We will update you with the latest information as we get closer to the event.
Thank you for your interest and support!
NOTE: If you can't find an available spot, we invite you to add your name to the waitlist for the shift(s) that interest you most. We try to find space for all interested volunteers as best we can, and especially appreciate the extra help when last-minute cancellations come in, or volunteers ask to change schedules. Folks on the waitlist have first dibs to claim any openings that pop up.
