Ng Scorers
AAM (Aberdeen
Asset Management) Scottish
Open 2017 (12-16 July)
I am currently recruiting volunteers to act as WALKING
SCORERS for the above European Tour
tournament which will take place over the Dundonald Links from
12-16 July 2017.
The
Walking Scorer’s role is to provide the scores for the tournament scoring
system and is the first vital link in the flow of information to the
Scoreboards upon which the players, spectators, the media and TV depend. During the tournament, each game will be
allocated a walking scorer who inputs the players’ scores onto a Score Card and
then into a hand-held computer (PDA). In
case you have never scored before, I must emphasise these are very
user-friendly. A Score Board Carrier will
also be allocated to each game and should walk with you for the duration of the
round.
Please note that all walking scorers will be allocated
at least 3 games (one of which could be the Pro-Am event on the Wednesday).
If you would rather volunteer for one of the other
scoring roles e.g. leaderboards or board carrying or even the marshalling role,
you can still contact me and I will pass your details on to the appropriate
person in charge.
Each volunteer should have a fairly good knowledge of
golf scoring and the rules, although referees are on course to keep us
right. You will be provided with uniform
and tournament tickets (details tbc) and must be at least 18 years of age.
Anyone interested in joining the Walking Scorers’ team
please contact me to find out more about volunteering or note your interest to
be involved. It’s good fun and you also
get a chance to be inside the ropes to watch some of the worlds’ best players!
