VOLUNTEERS INFORMATION
The main task for volunteers during the tournament is assisting with the scoring operation. Obtaining scores on the course from players, displaying them on leaderboards, and live scoring. In addition, Spotters and on course marshals may be needed as public attendance increases on the weekend.
POSTS
1. On-Course Scorer
Green scorer: One scorer every 3 holes. Once the pros have finished the hole, the volunteer will ask for the last 3 holes results, take note and pass them on to scoring base camp via radio or PDA.
Walking scorer: (Saturday and Sunday) following a match and passing results on to base camp.
2. Main Scoreboard
Located on the clubhouse terrace. Volunteers update the scoreboard using results transmitted from the course by the on-course scorers.
3. Leaderboards
Keep scores updated on manual scoreboards at designated holes during play.
4. Base Camp
Coordination of on course scorers and the results to be displayed on main scoreboards, leaderboards and live scoring.
