Their duties include mowing greens and fairways, raking bunkers, watering plants, repairing divots, and setting up the course for play each day.

Familiarity with mowing equipment, irrigation systems, and pesticide application—sometimes supported by relevant certifications—is essential. Attention to detail, teamwork, and strong time management skills help individuals excel in maintaining course quality and responding to changing conditions. These skills are crucial for ensuring a safe, attractive, and playable golf course environment that meets both player expectations and maintenance standards.
