Handicaddie launches app for tour players to find caddies
This week Handicaddie has launched a new app enabling professional golfers to view caddies that are available to hire for events across Europe and beyond!
Our aim? We want to make great caddies accessible to everyone !
Following our launch, here’s a little guide on how you can book your first caddie for an event:
- Creating A Profile
To create a profile , simply download the Handicaddie : Player app, available on IOS and Android stores.
To join a tour , select the tour you’re a member of from the drop down list.You can use your tour card as verification to prove your status. Once you have done this, sit back and wait for us to approve your account- you’ll then get an email once you’re approved! The next time you open the app, you will then see our event feed.
When you open the app you will see the upcoming events for your tour. Currently we are working with the Ladies European Tour, but our software can be applied to all professional tours as well as individual corporate events.
If you’re a casual golfer, register your interest and we’ll be in touch!
2.Finding Caddies
Once you click on an event you will then be able to view caddies that are available for this event. You’ll be able to view profiles of the caddies which will include previous experience and some further details on the skillset they provide.
You can then click on a caddie to see their full profile. If you think the caddie is a good fit, click on the icons on their profiles which will enable you to make contact with this caddie .
This platform is currently free to use for golfers.
About Handicaddie
Handicaddie was founded by Irish caddies Graham Curry, Jamie Kee and Ryan Bennett in 2020. Driven by our experience in caddying at golf clubs, we began designing an app which golf club staff could use to run their caddie programme through using our easy scheduling system. We currently work with golf clubs across the UK including Ardglass, Trump Aberdeen and North Berwick as a digital solution for their caddie programme.
