The First Tee of Denver, in a partnership with five

of Denver’s city courses, is proud to help return the

game to it’s roots while providing a great experience

for local kids.

Starting April 5th, when you play Willis Case,

Wellshire, Overland, Kennedy, or City Park golf courses you will be able

to call ahead and reserve a caddie. For the first time

in many years on a public course in Colorado you

can enjoy a tradition that has helped to make golf a

wonderful game.

By using this service you can help to offer local

kids many opportunities that were not open to them

before. These kids will gain business experience and

develop a sense of pride that comes from learning

and applying a diffi cult skill.

To Golfers: Please support caddie programs. You

will be surprised at the impact a caddie job can have

on a kid.

You can use this service by calling

(303) 295-4082, or by sending an email to:

caddies@thefi rstteeofdenver.com,

48 hours in advance of your tee time.

Please leave a message with your:

• Name

• Tee time

• Course you are playing

• Number of caddies needed

• Phone number

We will call you back to confirm your registration.

When you get to the course, the pro shop staff can

help you locate your caddie. The caddies are performing

this service on a tip-only basis.

Please be patient, and a good role model on the

course. Help expose these kids to golf and many of

the strong traditions that make the game great. You

can make it a fantastic learning experience for these

hardworking young men and women.

When you use a caddie you get the advantage of

1. Another pair of eyes to fi nd lost balls

2. Someone to seek advice from

3. Someone to carry or pull your bag

4. Someone to ensure proper care of the course

5. You get a smiling face to help pick you up when

you are not playing your best

6. And much more…..

Some say that if you have never played

golf with a caddie, then you have never

really played the game of golf.

To Caddies: You must take the responsibility

of caddying seriously and take the time to learn as

much as possible on and off the course. We can

provide you with links to other resources to help

you learn as much as you are willing. Please treat

your caddie opportunity as a privilege that you

can lose if you don’t take it seriously, or perform

properly.

You can use this caddying opportunity to:

• Make money

• Earn scholarships

• Gain job experience

• Learn how to run your own business

• Meet people that may infl uence your future

career

• Learn more about golf

• Enjoy your time on the golf course

Caddying is hard work. If you take the time and

interest to prepare yourself, you will enjoy your

experience much more, make more money, and

most importantly gain the respect of the people

you work with.

yourself become angry. The true scramblers

are thick-skinned. And they always beat

the whiners.” - Paul Runyan
