The Process
In order to be eligible to participate in the Caddie & Leadership Academy program, candidates must be entering their freshman or sophomore year of high school, and:
Achieve academic excellence with a minimum 3.0 GPA
Display outstanding character
Demonstrate a financial need
Youth participants agree to caddie for golfers during the summer months (June, July, August) at partnering country clubs at no charge three days per week, with the Caddie & Leadership Academy providing each caddie a monthly educational grant as compensation for their hard work. In addition to caddying three days per week, each program participant must attend one weekly leadership class. Participants also commit to a community service project, totaling six hours of volunteer work for a local nonprofit organization.
