1. The best way to plan for your participation is to stay informed about which players are available at which PGA TOUR events. You can do this by signing up for our newsletters at Newsletter Sign-Up.
2. Once you know for whom and where you’d like to caddy, there are a couple of ways to proceed:
a) Click on the live auction link for that player from the Caddy For A Cure Home Page. This will take you to the auction in the eBay Caddy For A Cure Store where you can either:
i.) Buy It Now at the price listed; or
ii.) Make Your Best Offer.
b) You can also call or email us directly if you don’t see what you want or if you have questions at Contact Us.
3. Once you’ve purchased or won the caddy auction, here’s what you can expect:
a) We will contact you confirming that you won the auction. We will then follow-up with thorough details about the day such as what you’ll wear, tickets and parking for the event, when-where-who you’ll meet at the course, pictures, etc.
b) You will be asked to consent to a Terms & Conditions Agreement that covers information like ‘what-ifs’ and mutual liability issues (Terms & Conditions Agreement).
