ON-COURSE VOLUNTEERS: COURSE SUPPORT
One of the benefits of volunteering on the course is a front-row seat to the tournament! Course tasks include spotting, crowd control, scoreboard carriers, and playing tee-off songs. All course support tasks involve fair to considerable amounts of walking and being outdoors for an extended period of time.
TASK DESCRIPTIONS
Course Prep: Involves a considerable amount of walking. Tasks could include but are not limited to mulching around tee pads, putting up feather flags and signs around the course, and assisting with flagging OB lines to ensure the course is ready for tournament play.
Spotter: An understanding of disc golf rules and protocol is preferred. Involves being outdoors for an extended period of time. Watching where discs land assists with the flow of play. (Instructional Spotter video here: https://youtu.be/F9H0S5xg-zc)
Crowd Control + Scoreboard Carrying: Understanding disc golf rules and protocol is preferred. It involves a considerable amount of walking and being outdoors for an extended period of time. Tasks could include carrying a scoreboard, holding “QUIET” signs, and keeping the crowd back from the players.
Live Scorer: The use of your phone will be required. Scorers will take the score for the players on a card and follow them for the whole round (18 holes).
Gates: Checking badges, directing people to parking lots, opening and closing gates, and moving barricades.
Course Teardown: Taking down canopies, feather flags, and signs. Pulling OB flags. Returning items to tournament central to be packed up after the event.

INSTRUCTION FOR DYNAMIC DISCS OPEN SPOTTERS
Thank you to all the spotters at the Dynamic Discs Open. Remember to have fun and enjoy your front-row seat. Spotting is the most fun you can have on the course besides playing. It is also a great way to improve your game as you see how players with different skill sets try to conquer the challenges that a hole presents them with. Enjoy doing a good job at spotting, and you will have a great time!
