Become a Caddie
The Caddie & Leadership Academy provides young men and women the opportunity to learn and grow both on and off the golf course through caddying. The Academy will assist caddies in developing their leadership skills and instill in them the value of strong work ethic and perseverance. As a caddie, you will work directly with the members of our partnering country clubs to build authentic relationships and gain valuable life experiences. The Caddie & Leadership Academy will be held at Oak Hill Country Club in 2025.
This program runs from Early May through mid-August and requires attendance/completion of ALL of the following:
Training/orientation sessions – Each 2 hours in length
Weekly leadership meetings – Each 1 hour in length
Volunteer service – 2 hours per month totaling 6 hours for the summer
Weekly work logs – detailing time worked and loops completed
A minimum of 3 loops every week
(A loop is one 18 hole round of golf, carrying a bag and servicing a golfer which takes about 4 hours)
Upon successful completion of weekly responsibilities, program participants will receive $500/month. Caddies may also receive a tip from their golfer after a completed loop.
For consideration into this program qualified applicants will be:
Entering their freshman or sophomore year of high school in the fall
