(North Platte, Nebraska, May 2, 2019) – On May 21st and 22nd, the best of Nebraska High School Class D boys’ golfers will converge on North Platte for the state championship tournament. The event is expected to draw 90-110 golfers to the Lake Maloney Golf Course. Class D is one of the highest-traveling classes, so we can expect many family, friends and well-wishers to come to North Platte to watch the tournament.

It will take a small army of volunteers to ensure that these boys have a memorable state championship experience. Helping with a state championship is incredibly rewarding. Just by getting to know these incredible young men, volunteers will find that their hope in the leadership of tomorrow is renewed.

One of the largest areas of volunteer needs is for scoring monitors. These monitors will accompany threesomes around the course in a golf cart, personally recording the hole-by-hole strokes of each golfer as well as helping with the speed of play by watching tee shots and looking for lost balls. Scoring monitors do not have to make any rules decisions. At least thirty scoring monitors will be needed throughout the tournament.

Other volunteers needed are Official Score Card Keepers, Score Board staff, Spotters, and Real Time Scorers. Anyone interested in volunteering should contact Samantha Geisler at the North Platte / Lincoln County Visitors Bureau at 308-221-6865 or [email protected]. You can also apply to be a volunteer online at PLAYNORTHPLATTE.COM.

Priority is given to volunteers who can work both days of the tournament. Volunteers will receive coffee and rolls in the morning, lunch, and those who did not volunteer at the girls’ tournament last fall will receive an official NSAA jacket. Deadline to volunteer is May 6th.
