The expansive list of amateur championship tournaments held at The Honors Course will grow this summer.
The United States Golf Association will conduct a national championship at the course in Ooltewah for a fifth time in the 32-year history of the Honors when the U.S. Junior Amateur is played July 18-23.
As with the four previous USGA nationals, two NCAA men’s championship tournaments, three Southern Golf Association championships and six Tennessee Golf Association tournaments hosted by the Honors, volunteers will be in high demand.
The Chattanooga Classic Club is seeking about 400 volunteers to work various shifts in the days leading up to and during the tournament for it measure up to the lofty standards of the USGA and The Honors Course.
“Most of our past volunteers love golf and the outdoors and get satisfaction similar to if they were competing themselves,” volunteer chairman Tim Haralson said. “They’re living a bit vicariously when they volunteer at these events.”
