Tournament Overview:

Allowing a caddie is a special component of this event.

Similar to the PGA Tour, players are encouraged to have a caddie to help them play their best. We suggest an adult (a parent, grandparent, other family member) serve as their caddie.

Caddies must refrain from over-coaching the player for whom they are caddying. It is the caddie's duty to help the player hit each shot in a timely manner.

It is our hope that the caddie can assist the player in pace of play, course management, and rules interpretation situations. Thus preparing the player for the upcoming competative tournament season. Only caddies are allowed to drive the golf cart. Caddies must adhere to the SAJGA policy on Proper Attire.

Please review the rules below to help make the experience more enjoyable.

"Important USGA Caddie Related Rules
1.       Rule 14-2b states that in “making a stroke,” a player shall not allow his caddie to position himself on or close to an extension of the line of play or the line of putt behind the ball.  A caddie may position himself in this manner before the player commits to beginning his swing but must move away once the player is set to begin his swing.  Failure to do so will result in a two-stroke penalty.
2.       Rule 8-2b states that when a player's ball is on the putting green, the player or his caddie may before, but not during, the stroke, point out a line for putting, but in doing so the putting green shall not be touched.  No mark shall be placed anywhere to indicate a line for putting.  Violation of this rule will result in a two-stroke penalty.
3.       Rule 17-3 states that the player's ball shall not strike the flagstick or attendant when the flagstick is attended or the flagstick is in the hole, unattended, or when the ball has been played from the putting green.  Should this occur, the player is assessed a two-stroke penalty, and the ball is played as it lies.
4.       Rule 8-1 states that a Caddie is one who carries or handles a player's clubs during play and otherwise assists him in accordance with the rules.  A player may only have one caddie at any given time.  A caddie may be replaced or eliminated at any time by the player.  No other person may offer advice or help to a player other than his caddie.

Always remember that a rules violation by the caddie is the same as if the player violated the rule.  A caddie must be aware of the rules and assist his player in accordance with the rules.
