Welcome to the 2021 Monday After the Masters Volunteer Effort (Abridged version) in North Myrtle Beach, SC! The key to any successful tournament is the volunteer force. The MAM is very thankful to have a team of volunteers that rival any tournament in the country. As we navigate out of a global pandemic, we have made some adjustments to our volunteer needs to insure the safety of everyone involved. We invite you to review the adjustments below and sign up if you are able.
In the (MAM Abridged version) please note the following changes before signing up:
No general spectator tickets will be sold or included in the volunteer or sponsor packages.
Golf will be tee times this year beginning at approximately 7:30 AM on Monday, September 13th. All groups will go off Hole #1.
A few committees will be limited this year in numbers and you may see some selections not available.
COVID-19 Clause – As we progress into the 2021 event, the MAM staff will be monitoring the recommendations of the CDc/Dhec and local officials regarding the guidelines for group gatherings. We will keep participants advised of any special accommodations and/or action steps that need to be followed to operate the event as safely as possible. If it’ IS not safe to operate the event, participants will be notified.
Please Note: If you requested the shipment of the volunteer uniform in 2020, you DO NOT NEED to purchase another uniform. Simply select the option that you already have the volunteer uniform. We are using the uniforms from 2020 since we were just 4 weeks out from the event when all was cancelled. If you received a refund, you will need to sign up and purchase the uniform package. If you do not see the preferred committee below, AND rolled the volunteer fee over but no longer wish to participate, please contact alexa@empiresportssc.com for a refund.
