Valspar Championship
Player Transportation
and
Courtesy Car
Committee

The Valspar Championship Player Transportation Committee is new on Our list of tournaments as of 2022.

Committee volunteers provide transportation to players, their family members and VIP guests before, during and after the tournament. Volunteers assist with the car inventory and control the distribution of official tournament vehicles. The committee also assists in the staging (at TPA) and return of the courtesy vehicles after the tournament. Drivers must be at least 25 years old and provide a valid driver’s license. This Committee sometimes requires a lot of downtime due to the players' unpredictable schedule so it is recommended that you bring a book to pass time. If downtime allows, you may even have the chance to check out play in-person as we are usually located near the driving range or one of the holes.

You get to drive some nice cars and get to meet some really nice people.

Unlike other tournaments, the Valspar Championship Player Transportation Committee also includes player shuttles. Those are 4 or 6-seater carts, that transport players and caddies from their locker room and dining building to the back of the clubhouse area as well as the practice area. Due to the size of the clubhouse, players and caddies have their facilities in a building close-by, but it requires the help of our cart shuttles. For this part of our committee, the minimum age is 18 years.
