Hi! I'm Mike Becks and I'm with LeaderBoard Tournament systems of Orlando. We're here
on behalf of Expert Village to talk about charity golf tournaments and assembling the
committee. The most important part of the golf tournament is providing the committee
structure and bringing in strong people who are committed to the event, committed to the
organization, and are willing to do what needs to be done. Where do you find the volunteers
for such a committee? Well, certainly friends, friends of the charity, clubs, associations
that might be related to the organization, board members, colleges, and retirees are
good places to start. You need to design goals for the committee members, hold them accountable
and check with them frequently either during the meetings or outside the meetings. The
chair people that you would want to consider are certainly the tournament chair person
responsible for the overall even itself, but also a golfer chair person, a sponsor chair,
the prize chairman, the logistics chair, and finally the volunteer chair person. If this
is a first year event or you don't have significant expertise in running an event, consider the
use of and outside management company to help you run the event. Thank You.
