Walking Scorer                                 

At least one walking/scorer accompanies each group of golfers in the 8-11 and 12-13 age groups.  The walking/scorer's responsibility is to double check the scores that players report and help in sorting out problems regarding differing scores.  In addition, they help to keep the players moving along at a good pace and make sure players observe proper golf course etiquette.  Walking/scorers have NO responsibility for interpreting the Rules of Golf.

A complete list of instructions and responsibilities will be supplied to walkers when they register at the tournaments they have volunteered for.

This job is important to the overall success of our junior golf program.  Instructing players in the proper method of keeping score in competitive situations early in their careers will avoid some possibly costly and embarrassing situations down the road.  And, of course, it is critical that young players learn how to comport themselves properly while on the golf course. 

The way our members behave reflects on WJGA and directly affects our ability to find courses to play on for future tournaments.

Thank you for volunteering to fill this very important position !!
