Volunteer FAQs

The JHI is a PGA Tour Champions Golf Tournament featuring 78 Notable PGA TOUR Champions, showcasing golf legends such as Bernhard Langer, Jim Furyk and Padraig Harrington. The field of 78 will “tee it up” alongside 26 Pro Football HOF amateurs in a first-ofits-kind celebrity pro-am format.

The JHI is a new full field PGA Tour Champions event that replaces the TimberTech Championship with a different tournament format and date: March 31 – April 6, 2025.

Our volunteers play an enormous and vital role in ensuring that the Tournament runs professionally, providing the fans, participants and sponsors a fun and unparalleled experience attending a celebrity pro-am tournament. Volunteering at the JHI will give you behind-the-scenes access with front-row excitement at this premiere PGA TOUR Champions event – the new “Home of Legends.” You will be given the opportunity to make memories, new friends, and gain professional experience. The Boca Raton Champions Golf Charities conducts the event and is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which gives back to the Boca Raton community. This charitable organization can certify all volunteered hours as community service.
