Player Assistants 

The primary goals of the Player Assistants are to:

1) Manage the pace of play.

    • Work to maintain a maximum round time of 4 hours and 25 minutes.
    • Identify slow groups and communicate our policy on slow play.
    • Manage slow groups to achieve our round time goals.
    • Record any slow play issues on the daily tee sheet.

2) Ensure all course rules are being adhered to.

  • Carts on cart paths only–unless otherwise stated by the Pro Shop.
  • No outside alcohol is to be consumed on the course.
  • Over consumption of alcohol is to be monitored and reported to the Pro Shop.
  • Proper dress is enforced.
  • ‘No metal spike’ rule is monitored.
  • Proper tee boxes are to be in use at all times (help with pace of play).
  • Improper behaviour is managed appropriately.
  • All issues are recorded in the Pro Shop. (See Manager on Duty).

3) Act as a Course Ambassador and ensure everyone is enjoying their day.

  • Talk to groups of golfers and see if they are in need of anything.
  • Carry a supply of score cards, divot repair tools, tees, ball markers, and first-aid supplies.
  • Record any pertinent guest comments and feedback, and bring them to the Pro Shop for recording & follow-up.
  • When possible, promote the other services on the property including the River’s Edge Clubhouse & Rowena’s accommodations.
  • Assist Grounds Crew as needed: sand & seed divots/tee boxes, garbage clean-up, and washroom checks.
