Letter from the Executive Editor

t is a distinct pleasure as Executive Editor to be a part of the 34th Edition of the Official Media Guide for the Doral Publix Junior Golf Tournament. It represents a challenge, and at the same time an honor, to have the opportunity to work alongside a group of dedicated professionals that develops amazing initiatives for young golfers. Under the direction of Charlie DeLucca and Charlie DeLucca III, this event has grown over its history of success involving the participation of more than 650 youngsters and their families representing 40 countries who come to the beautiful Doral Golf Resort & Spa during the month of December. This is the 34th year that the event has been held at this location. More than 15,000 players have participated during the tournament’s long career. I want to thank all the sponsors of the event and those who work tirelessly alongside Charlie DeLucca in his continuing support of youth activities to ensure the success of this event so that the participants feel at home, have a good time, and feel the force of inspiration to develop the skills necessary to overcome obstacles in their personal development. In designing this guide, we have included information about those who have participated in the tournament since its inception, sponsors, prior winners, notes, interviews, and testimonials to add to the importance of the event hoping to reach youngsters from all corners of the world to become part of this special annual activity. By incorporating the technological advances of the Internet and social networking, this guide is accessible to national and international media. It provides the capabilities for everyone to feel as if they were here participating, meeting the players and their families, and knowing the proud history of the Doral

Publix Junior Classic. Finally I wish to thank the entire team led by Joel Furnari, Developer and Director of the Official Media Guide, The First Tee of Miami, and John Reed and Carole Miller who provided historical information of the event. Thanks to their dedication and commitment and the ongoing efforts of the DeLuccas, we look forward to many more successful events which develop young golfers and well-prepared citizens of the world. Good luck to the participants, and I look forward to seeing you soon. ⌾ Jose L. Barletta, M.S. Executive Editor and President of Group and Miami Opportunities

Nine

Healthy Habits

14

The First Tee Nine Healthy Habits were created through a collaboration among The First Tee, ANNIKA Foundation and Florida Hospital for Children to promote healthy, active lifestyles for young people. The healthy habits are a list of nine health and wellness topics presented as a part The First Tee, formatted for easy understanding and learning by elementary-age students and chapter participants.

Physical:

Emotional:

Energy

Vision

It is important to understand and make healthy choices about when to eat, how much to eat, and the types of food and drinks to provide the body with the most useful energy.

In order to make the most of one’s unique gifts—talents, characteristics and abilities— an individual needs to learn from the past, value the present, create their vision and future to ultimately “leave a footprint.”

Play A variety of energizing play can help the body stay strong, lean and fit, and be fun in the process. Sleep and other forms of “re-charging” allow one to engage in play on a daily basis.

Safety Physical safety includes playing in a safe environment and by the rules, protecting the body with proper equipment, warm-up and cool-down and wearing sun protection.

Mind The mind is a powerful tool for health. One’s mind influences his/her emotions and behaviors and can be utilized for self-improvement, building confidence and maintaining perspective.

Social: Friends Maintaining healthy relationships includes surrounding one’s self with friends and supportive people, while effectively handling challenging situations, including bullying and navigating the digital age with social media.

School Success in school - learning, building relationships and contributing to the school environment - leads to success in other areas of life.

Family

Community

When family members participate in activities together – share meals, communicate and establish roles and responsibilities – they are more likely to be successful in achieving their healthrelated goals.

Like the health of one’s body, it is important to also explore the health of one’s community and discover how one can give back and care for its environment and safety.

34th Annual Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic - 2015 - www.dagagolf.org


Nine

Core Values Bring them home

1

Honesty

4

Respect

7

Perseverance

The quality or state of being truthful; not deceptive. Golf is unique from other sports in that players regularly call penalties on themselves.

To feel or show deferential regard for; esteem. In golf it is important to show respect for oneself, playing partners, fellow competitors, the golf course, and for the honor and traditions of the game.

To persist in an idea, purpose or task despite obstacles. To succeed in golf, players must continue through bad breaks and their own mistakes, while learning from past experiences.

By participating in The First Tee, young people are introduced to core values which are reinforced throughout the program. Parents are encouraged to reinforce these behaviors by talking about them, what they mean and what these behaviors look like at home.

2

Integrity

5

Confidence

8

Courtesy

Strict adherence to a standard of value or conduct. Personal honesty and independence. Golf is a game of honesty, etiquette and composure. You are responsible for your actions and personal conduct on the golf course.

Reliance or trust. A feeling of self-assurance. Confidence plays a key role in the level of play that one achieves. Players can increase confidence in their abilities by being positive and focusing on something they are doing well regardless of the outcome.

Considerate behavior toward others; a polite remark or gesture. A round of golf should begin and end with a handshake between fellow competitors. Show courtesy toward others by remaining still and quiet while they prepare and execute a shot.

3

Sportmanship

6

Responsibility

Observing the rules of play and winning or losing with grace. You must know and abide by the rules of golf and be able to conduct yourself in a respectful manner.

Accounting for one’s actions; dependable. Players are responsible for their actions on the golf course. It is up to them to keep score, repair divots, rake bunkers, repair ball marks on the green, and keep up with the pace of play.

9

Judgment

The ability to make a decision or form an opinion. Using good judgment is very important in golf. It comes into play when deciding on strategy, club selection, when to play safe and when to take a chance, the type of shot players consider executing, as well as making healthy choices on and off the golf course.

Golf Wearable Technology invades the Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic The Top Ten Gadgets that allow us to be more connected than ever to improve the level of our game. By Jose L. Barletta, M.S. President, Barnews Research Group - 60 years as an amateur golfer Founder of the Seminar: “The Executive and the Enterprise of the Future”

T

he Convergence of Technology is impacting our lives in different ways and changing the scenarios of our activities. Technology is now involved in all sports, and it is entering our daily routine in ways never thought possible just a few years ago. Golf has never been an exact science. Today, we see many players motivated to use devices that measure different aspects of their games, such as swing path and tempo, putter precision, pressure, stress level, calories expended by round, and tracking golf shot direction, distance and spread. Technology is present in the design of drivers, shaft , balls, clubs, golf course layouts, simulations, and club fitting facilities to mention a few. The best example is the increased distance of drives that are being achieved by today’s leading professional golfers. The named “Wearable Technology” is relative new. In less than five years, it has had a major impact in the game. You can see it in all golf shops with the plethora of different gadgets designed to improve the game. At the CES Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas every January, the thrust of technology and its impact on the golf industry is on display for golf enthusiasts, manufacturers, and business enterprises when new products and services are introduced. Even during practice rounds, devices provide information for in-depth analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the course. Hole-by-hole, we can see the electronic Yardage Image in a Smart Phone or watch.

In my opinion, here are the “Top Ten Wearable Technologies” in the world of golf:

Lumo Lift (Lumbody Tech) The Lumo Lift (also known as the Lumbody) is a wearable device that analyzes and assists users to improve posture. Installing this device on the upper torso can find the correct lumbar position. This equipment monitors how far you vary from the position throughout your game so the golfer can get the best swing. Analyzing the other available devices, it is clear that this one is the best to address problems with posture.

Fitbit Flex Fitbit offers a family of tech products worn on the wrist to monitor real-time information of physical activity. The products include:

34th Annual Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic - 2015 - www.dagagolf.org


Surge: The fitness “Super Watch” tracks GPS, continuous heart rate, all-day activity stats and sleep. It includes smart notifications and music control. Charge: This device tracks steps, distance, calories burned, floors climbed, active minutes and sleep. It includes Caller ID. Charge HR: Tracks continuous heart rate, all-day activity stats and sleep. It includes Caller ID. Flex: Tracks steps, distance, calories burned, active minutes and sleep. One: Tracks steps, distance, calories burned, floors climbed and sleep. Zip: Tracks steps, distance and calories burned. Aria: This “WI-FI Smart Scale” measures weight, BMI, lean mass and body fat percentages. Accessories: Accessories include wristbands, clips, cables, wireless sync dongle (that plugs into a USB port to sync all Fitbit trackers), charging stations, and clasps.

Jawbone: The Jawbone UP2 is a comfortable, good looking and accurate activity tracker that provides the basics including step, sleep monitoring, and smart alarm. However, it falls short of the Charge HR’s advanced fitness skills. The major feature of the UP2 is the software on your phone. It automatically figures out whether you’ve been sleeping or exercising and alerts you so you can enter relevant workout information. You can program smart alarms that set the Up2 to vibrate when you’re coming out of a deep sleep. You can program “get up and move around” alerts. You can also track your meals. Interacting with the Up2 requires you to use a double-tapand-hold-your-finger-down gesture to switch from active to sleeping modes. The Up2 isn’t totally waterproof, just water-resistant. It’s fine for sweat or rain or the shower but not very useful for swimmers, scuba, or snorkeling. Also, there is no heart rate monitor. Cost might be the most important part of the Up2: it starts at $99.99. That’s much cheaper than almost any smartwatch you can buy right now.

Maui Jim Sunglasses for Golf

It is easy to overlook a fairly essential component of any golfer’s accessories: sunglasses. Maui Jim is a leader in the sunglasses industry and is working hard to keep pace with the needs of today’s golfers. While all of their sunglasses feature frames for every lifestyle and patented Polarized Plus 2 lenses, their newest releases have been developed specifically for the golf course. They may even help lower your scores in addition to improving your style. Maui Jim’s popular Stone Crushers (pictured above) features Maui HT lens technology which is designed to help golfers see things that sit on surfaces. When looking through the lenses you will see sharper contrast and more vibrant color, which heightens contrast and depth of field so that the low light being perceived is more robust. In layman’s terms, the white golf ball will really pop against the darker, green grass, especially early in the morning and late afternoon. The Maliko Gultch frames feature a high-gloss finish, anticorrosive hinge and a double bridge with adjustable, nonslip nose pads. Neutral grey lenses are perfect for bright and sunny conditions. Another lens option is the HCL Bronze which provides excellent contrast and a warm, subtle bronze tint. Both sets of shades come with a Maui Jim case and cleaning cloth and are available in prescription.

Apple Watch The Apple Watch isn’t a standalone device -- you must own an iPhone 5 or later to use the Watch. A few Apple Watch functions work away from the phone, but the watch primarily works alongside the phone as an extension, a second screen, and basically another part of your iOS experience. It is referred to as a “symbiote”. Communication, fitness, information, time: these are the core Apple Watch functions, but the Watch has many features and apps. Apple Watch receives messages from friends, send

34th Annual Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic - 2015 - www.dagagolf.org


18

texts and lets you dictate messages, make speakerphone calls, tracks your steps, logs runs and monitors your heart rate. It can connect over Wi-Fi in a home or office to extend its range.

Go Pro GoPro is the most popular offering for high-quality mountable cameras that can be used for as many applications as the human mind can conceive. The GoPro Hero’s biggest feature is its price, and the video quality is good for the cost/benefit ratio. However it is without a screen, so positioning the camera to capture the images you want is difficult. There is no built-in Wi-Fi, so there is no wireless transfer or preview capability. The Hero + LCD has WiFi to directly connect to a smart-phone or to the GoPro Smart Remote to control the camera or transfer on-the-go uploads. The Hero4 Silver is almost identical to the top-of-the-line Hero4 Black, and it has a built-in touch screen.

Arccos Golf Tracking There is a new app for Apple iOS called Arccos. Using “clubto-cloud technology,” Arccos gives golfers the data they need to make better, more informed decisions while out on the links and tools to analyze their game later. On the fairway and wondering whether to go wood versus iron, Arccos knows which club has worked better in the past and can show exactly why. By combining an iPhone app and Bluetooth-enabled sensors that screw into the grip of each club with GPS golf course data from the cloud, Arccos tracks the details of the game in the background. Once the clubs are paired with the phone, there is nothing else needed but to play through while Arccos records metrics like shot distance, percentage of fairway hits, club averages, and number of putts to the pin. Over time the data Arccos collects gives golfers quick access to distance averages, longest shots, Green in Regulation (GiR) percentage, and total shots taken with each club.

For golfers hoping to improve their game, Arccos has the Tour Analytics platform. Created with help from golf statistics pioneer Peter Sanders, the Tour Analytics platform categorizes a player’s handicaps into driving, approach, chipping, sand, and putting to better understand what part of their game is having trouble and where they can make changes that will have the greatest impact on overall play. The Arccos app has full coverage for every golf course in the United States, but currently only runs on iPhone 4s or later. Android and Windows phone versions are reportedly in the works. Check your local golf pro shop or go to the website for pricing, availability, shipping, etc.

Game Golf This device is an Automatic Shot Tracking system that provides the best way to track shot performance. Shot by shot, it records all your stats so you can visualize your game on a whole new level by shaving strokes off your golf game. Based upon the information from the Game Golf website, this device has been recognized by several golf professionals who use it. It is a lightweight GPS tracking device that captures accurate shot locations and calculates club performance during a given round. The system is comprised of a small, lightweight GPS tracking device that attaches to your belt and features an accelerometer, compass and a gyrometer. The Game Golf system also comes with red sensors discs -- one for each of the 14 clubs in your bag, plus four extras for additional clubs -- that screw into the butt end of the golf grip. When the red sensor in the grip is tapped against the GPS device, it lets the system know what club you’re using for a particular shot. Simply tagging each shot allows you to record data such as club distance, shot dispersion, fairways hit, greens in regulation and putts per hole. The data logged during the round is then sent to the Game

34th Annual Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic - 2015 - www.dagagolf.org


19

Golf servers and can be viewed on a computer, iPhone or iPad. According to Game Golf, the device has already been used in 55 countries worldwide with 80,000-plus rounds and 60 million golf shots logged by the system. Graeme McDowell played a major role in the development process of the device. Jim Furyk wore Game Golf during this year’s Masters Par 3 Contest, and Lee Westwood used it at THE PLAYERS Championship.

Zepp Golf Kit This wearable, multi-sport motion sensor features dual accelerometers, a 3-axis gyroscope, and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth 2.1 to your iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch or Android device. It provides instant feedback with a 360 degree analysis, as well as video showing club plane, hand path, the ability to compare to a pro, and also check out your swing data. For you techies, Zepp Golf’s predictive algorithms are within 2 miles per hour of a Doppler radar system which allows the sensor to measure clubhead speed and tempo during the swing, and (with your smartphone in your back pocket) hip rotation. The sensor weighs only 6.3

Google Glass Google Glass provides information that offers yardage, swing speed and launch angle through voice or finger movement. The information appears in a heads-up display in front of the golfer’s eyes allowing players to go about their round. With

grams and attaches to the golf glove. It captures, measures and analyzes the swing in three dimensions while recording 1,000 data points per second. The device takes a snapshot of each swing and sends the data directly to a smartphone or tablet. From there, a golfer can replay the swing, analyze the data and do s i d e - by - s i d e comparisons. The device also logs the data for every swing, giving you the ability to build detailed reports about each round and practice session.

the help of two different apps, Swingbyte and GolfSight, players can put the glasses on and receive swing analysis on their round without having to look down at their smartphone or tablet. It has been worn by a number of players in the last year, including PGA TOUR winners Billy Horschel and Jordan Spieth. Earlier this year, Google announced that it would stop producing the Google Glass prototype but remained committed to the development of the product.

Testimonials Since 1962 the development of youth golf under the direction of Charlie DeLucca Jr. has evolved from a successful Dade Amateur Golf Association to the Nationally known First Tee Miami. Over the years the two associations produced a few professional golfers but more importantly through DAGA and The First Tee lives have been formed and affected by their association with this golf leadership. Below are some reflections of both young people and adults as too their personal growth through DAGA and The First Tee.

Andres Pumariega The summer of 6th grade I found golf clubs in the closet of a good friends house. My first thought was that golf was boring, easy, and for old people. Little did I know how much this day would influence the course of my life. As I began to involve myself in the game I was looking for guidance to move forward, in came The First Tee of Miami. The First Tee is where I would begin my journey in golf that has led me to where I am today. The First Tee was a constant presence in my life throughout my formative teenage years. Here, I would

learn the value of hard work, judgement, discipline, and many other life long characteristics instilled through the 9 core principles. It would even provide me the opportunity to be the first junior from The First Tee of Miami to play in the Champions Tour at Pebble Beach!

obstacles presented. Eventually, I found my way to George Washington University, where I could pursue a prestigious academic degree while playing golf.

I was able to experience this along with my mentor Charlie Pfieffer whom would pass away later that year, a memory I will have with me for the rest of my life. After graduating high school I earned a full scholarship to a Division 1 school in Georgia.

At GW I was fortunate enough to set the school individual win record with four wins, become a two time academic all american, and lead the team to it’s first ever conference championship. These are some of the accolades I am proud of, however, they pale in comparison to the invaluable foundation and life lessons garnered through my participation in The First Tee.

Though the opportunity was great, adversity was to come, and without the values and support gained through The First Tee I would not overcome the

Values, skills, memories and relationships skills that will undoubtedly serve to aid me throughout the course of my life as a professional, parent, and friend.

Stefano Diaz Participating in The First Tee has built pillars of value that have structured my life with great impact.

they have exposed me to extreme nerve-wracking situations where finding courage would take too much time...

Thanks to TFT, not only have I traveled to the most beautiful places and met beautiful people throughout the US,

Fortunately, due to those experiences, these situations have given me the confidence to

approach and communicate with people that others may normally fear. Like Mr. Trump for example. I have been blessed with growing up with the First Tee and strongly encourage others to participate as the program not only teaches valuable life lessons but you also learn how to play Golf!

Mike Stern Early in my life I had trouble focusing on what I needed to do to reach my goals. Through the First Tee my values and goals were re-defined to give me opportunities for success.

Ricky Escobar The First Tee Miami - DAGA has taught me to be honest since an early age which I exercise on a daily basis as an accountant.


Testimonials Julie Steinbauer I am currently a junior at Rollins College, on the varsity golf team. I originally thought that the First Tee would only help me as a junior golfer, but I find myself using the lessons I learned there, and reflecting on my wonderful experiences there every day. Throughout the time I was involved as a junior golfer, I was given so many great opportunities. I attended the First Tee PLAYer’s academy in 2011, held at University of Richmond that year, where I made long lasting friendships. I keep in contact with a few people from that academy, as our paths have crossed again in college golf. Additionally, I was able to go to the Nature Valley First Tee Open at Pebble Beach in

2012, which is one of my fondest memories from junior golf. It put me on a stage I had never been on before, let me experience the most beautiful golf course in the United States, and it was a trip my whole family enjoyed together. These opportunities, among others, and the instruction I got at the First Tee was immensely helpful for my golf game and helped me obtain a golf scholarship to Rollins. The lessons outside of golf I learned at the First Tee, though, are what I use most in my daily life. At Rollins I am not only a member of the #1 ranked varsity team in the nation among Division 2, but I am also a peer mentor for a class of 20 freshmen, the philanthropy chair of my sorority, and I maintain a 3.5 GPA.

The lessons the First Tee always gave me about time management, which was rooted in their values of responsibility, confidence and judgment, has made me be able to be successful at all of these activities. Through the values of courtesy, integrity and respect the First Tee always reminded me of how lucky I am to be in my position, and to help those who are not. This has inspired my active involvement of service and community involvement in college. Additionally, I was injured my sophomore year of college and the value of perseverance really helped me through that. I had never been out of golf for quite that long before, and the Life Skills and Core Values really helped me cope with this. Although, the First Tee gave me so much as a junior golfer, the real impact I see from the program is in my life as a First Tee graduate.

Oscar Cabanas As a young kid of only 4 years I joined the First Tee because I loved golf. Little did I know the First Tee would do so much more for me than teach me about golf. The First Tee instilled in me the 9 core values that I’ve taken with me from the First Tee and applied to every part of my life from my schooling to my relationships with family and friends. From a young age the First Tee shaped me to be the man I am today. I owe a lot to the First Tee.

I have been given many opportunities to meet people and go places that I wouldn’t have been able to go otherwise. I believe that the First Tee is a special organization that helps a young person grow up, and as I’ve learned, it is an organization that installs values that stay with a young person for the rest of their lives.

Patti Rizzo DAGA (Dade Amateur Golf Association) was where it all began for me. I was young and athletic but did not know what sport I liked best. When I was about 15 years old, I was talked into playing in a junior golf tournament run by DAGA . I participated just for the challenge. I had only played golf maybe 5 times before that. Needless to say, I finished last, but it was at that Junior

tournament that I realized how much fun golf could be. From that point forward, I quit playing almost all other sports and began to focus on golf. Long story short…it was my destiny! Thanks to Charlie Delucca Sr and the DAGA staff , golf was fun, challenging and a joy to play. Along with learning the how to play golf, DAGA made me a better person all around. I learned honesty, integrity, commitment, and respect. Thank you DAGA and First Tee for all you do for junior golf!!!!

Testimonials Playing the Doral Publix Junior Golf Tournament is something amazing for me. Competing against players from all around de world is an experience that I never lived and I would love to have. The fact of playing with these kind of players excites me a lot and encourages me to play.

Facundo Boquete the coaches can know me. This gives an additional interest for me. My dream is to do the two things I love the most at the same time, studying engineering and competing in the highest level I can in golf.

In addition, this tournament is a huge step to reach my dream. I have always wanted to study in a US University and playing this tournament is a great opportunity for me because

In Argentina, universities do not provide the opportunity of improving and competing in a high level of golf. Therefore, I thought that the American system was the one to achieve my dream.

Rebecca Kuhn Butler I first picked up a golf club at three years old when my sister and I attended Saturday morning clinics at Melreese Golf course, with DAGA. I am not sure where I would be without DAGA’s professional team who helped my progression through junior golf. I was

able to complete and find success on each level of competition. Through this process I realized my dream to play college golf and now work in the golf industry. Not only did DAGA help my reach my athletics goals but, helped me grow as a person instilling lasting values that will always be with me. Thank you DAGA!

Tina Miller Lloyd Growing up in the First Tee program helped to shape me into the person I am today. First Tee and the game of golf opened me up to so many opportunities and gave me the life skills that I now use today. Playing

in the First Tee allowed me to gain a golf scholarship to the University of Miami where I excelled on the golf course as well as in the classroom. Being a leader on and off the course easily allowed me to transition

into my career of marketing where I am now Social Media Marketing Manager for HSN. It is the tenacity as an athlete that I use in meetings daily to show my never give up attitude. It was the First Tee that instilled the core values in me and the game of golf that gave me integrity in all that I do.

Timothy Briand Let’s try this: I still find myself telling stories to family members, friends, and peers about my days navigating the green, red, gold, white, and blue courses at Doral during the Doral Publix Jr Golf Classic.

Many of the friends I made there over the years are still friends more than 20 years later. The influence this tournament, and the DeLucca family has had in junior golf can’t be overstated. It’s rather amazing to think of how many relationships have been made and restrengthened through this event over the years.

Jay Cooper DAGA, what a great time! What a fun time! Every Monday meeting new people and playing new golf courses and enjoying new challenges. DAGA taught me sportsmanship,respect,rules of the game, integrity and perseverance. DAGA has led me to play amateur, collegiate and professional golf all around the world.

DAGA helped me become the person I’m in forming life long friendships. DAGA was a contributing factor to my success as a golf Professional.

Testimonials James Vargas Growing up in Miami and being a part of the Dade Amateur Golf Association was very influential in my development as a golfer. DAGA provided me with the ability to

enjoy the great game of golf and test my skills in a competitive setting. One of its biggest impacts was teaching me about respect for the game and the importance of the rules. Learning discipline early played a big factor in the way I lead my life today. I recently completed my degree at the

University of Florida and going back to school after nine years is one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. I’m very happy to be continuing my golf career on the PGATOUR LatinoAmerica and love the travel. As my golf journey progresses, I am still able to look back on my days playing DAGA for memories of home and a great beginning.

John Pallot I recall my DAGA days with fond memories. In my time, each local course had their own team. I played on the Biltmore Golf Course team with pride. The camaraderie, competition, challenge, meeting other golfers and working together to be the winning team each week was something I relished. Charlie DeLucca and Charlie Pifer were always there to make sure everything ran

smoothly. The First Tee wasn’t around back then, but in the spirit of competition most of us learned about perseverance, honesty,confidence,respect, courtesy,sportsmanship, judgement and integrity: all characteristics The First Tee now teaches. Charlie and Charlie made sure the traditions of the game were upheld and sportsmanship was essential win or lose. Even today,as a PGA pro, I owe a lot of what I’ve become to DAGA. Thank you Charlie!!

Carlos Velez’s long golf journey – from First Tee of Miami as a young kid to aspiring professional and PGA Tour caddie -- has taken many roads and he has enjoyed each journey. Photo by Bill Van Smith

THE FIRST TEE’S FIRST-CLASS GOLFERS AND MENTORS: VELEZ AND COMPTON

I

n a quest to become a successful professional golfer, Carlos Velez has spent much of his life involved in a myriad of jobs that keep him immersed in the sport he so much loves.

His first golf job came at age 15, working at Miccosukee Golf & Country Club in southern Miami-Dade County. Velez cleaned carts and labored on the range. And, c’mon Mr. Average Golfers, you know what you can’t resist doing when practicing on the range. Admit it, you test your accuracy by aiming your shots at that vehicle with the mesh cage as they clean up all those loose practice balls.

Just remember, that might have been young Carlos or some other poor soul in that vehicle. At Miccosukee, Velez went on to jobs that included cleaning up and working on the golf carts, working the front desk, going on the course and picking up fallen branches, etc., working as an assistant teaching pro, and even filling in as the acting general manager. He also has taken a swing – literally – as a touring PGA professional, playing on the PGA’s Latinoamerica Tour. For Velez, there have been many jobs with many different skill sets, but they have always come back to that love of his -- golf.

34th Annual Doral Publix Junior Golf Classic - 2015 - www.dagagolf.org


51

Of all the golf jobs Velez has held, which was the most difficult for him? “Playing golf and trying to make a living that way,” he said. And which was the most enjoyable of his golf jobs? “Playing golf and trying to make a living that way,” he repeated with a smile. Now, at age 27, all of Velez’s aforementioned jobs have built a solid foundation – similar to a good golf stance – for his current status. After 10 years at Miccosukee, Velez currently is a teaching pro at Melreese Country Club, and has landed yet another golf job. That latest endeavor comes with a bonus, getting Velez on the PGA Tour -- not as a player, but as a caddie. In the past several months, Velez has been carrying the bag for successful PGA Tour player Erik Compton. That pairing of Velez and Compton seems to be a natural. Compton, 35 and a Miami Palmetto High graduate, was born and raised in Miami, and Velez moved from Colombia to Miami when he was 9-years-old and played at Braddock High (three-time first-team All-Dade and one-time Miami-Dade Player of the Year). Of his relationship with Compton, Velez said, “It has been great, and I think it helps that we’re both from Miami.” Compton quickly agreed. “The fact that we both grew up in Miami is something good that we have in common.” Another area Velez and Compton have in common is their interest in helping kids learn golf and the ethical and moral values that come attached to the game. Erik Compton eyes an iron shot at the Honda Classic. Photo by Bill Van Smith

Why? Because both of them, as they grew up in Miami, had people do the same for them.

They were both part of The First Tee of Miami program at Melreese with the well-known DeLuccas – father Charlie Jr. and son Charlie III – along with many others teaching them not only golf but also how to be good people. Velez and Compton both grew up under the nurturing of the DeLuccas and The First Tee, and they feel the least they can do is give back by treating and helping kids the way they were

treated and helped not too many years ago. In addition, Compton, with his well-known story of receiving heart transplants at ages 12 and 28, gives back with his annual tournament at Melreese to benefit transplant research. Helping kids has been going on for a long time for Velez and Compton, but the new twist for Velez is the job of caddying for Compton. “It’s a good team,” Compton said, explaining how his former caddie had to leave because of health issues. “We’ve done well together. “I needed somebody I could take on the road with me and have fun with and rely upon, and that was Carlos,” Compton said. In an interview after making his first PGA Tour hole-inone in this year’s Canadian Open, Compton mentioned Velez, not calling him by name or as his caddie, but simply referring to him as “my friend.”

The bond had been formed.

Velez has been having a great time in his new job slinging Compton’s golf bag over his shoulder, but realizes, “I’m fairly new to this job, but I think I have gained more and more of Erik’s trust. He knows I’ve been out there and played professional golf. “I’m not going to be the know-it-all,” he continued. “I want to wait until he tells me what he wants. It’s a learning process. I have to think in his eyes, not in my eyes.” Time is becoming a factor, but Velez has not totally given up on the possibility and dream of joining Compton as a PGA player. After all, several years back, Velez and Compton were paired in a round of the Nationwide Tour’s (now Web.com Tour) Miccosukee Championship, an event that no longer exists. Growing up in Miami, Velez did not have lots of money, and he credits his father for giving him the opportunity to play golf. “I could not afford to play much golf,” he said, “but my dad did everything so I could. He delivered pizzas, he worked night security shifts at the airport. He plain and simple did everything.” The caddying gig with Compton is giving Velez an upfront view of life on the PGA Tour. So, Carlos, with Compton at center stage hitting the shots while you stand in the background with the bag, is there any envy? “No,” Velez said definitively, “He knows I’m a big fan of his and that I’m doing everything I can to help him. “It has been fun – lots of fun.” Story reprinted courtesy of The Tee Times.

ABOUT US

& DAGA

PArtnershiP The Dade Amateur Golf Association (DAGA) was founded in 1963 and has been instrumental in the continuing development of junior golf in South Florida. Through various programming and fundraising activities DAGA has been an agent of support and positive change for the entire community which has impacted all individuals including those with and without disabilities. DAGA began working directly with Special Olympics in 1991 to bring golf to the world of individuals with developmental disabilities. Annually, they host 2,916 athletes with disabilities throughout Miami Dade County. in 1990, the City of Miami Programs for Persons with Disabilities coordinated and implemented the inaugural Edward James Olmos Golf Classic which was later known as the City of Miami Golf Classic, to raise money for its programs. From its inception DAGA participated (and won the first year) in the tournament which was held at the Miami Springs Country Club and assisted the program with its fundraising effort. in 1994, DAGA became the driving force and spearheaded the organizing, fundraising, logistics and operations of the Golf Tournament for the City of Miami. This meant a significant milestone for this grassroots fundraiser bringing it to the next level with its expertise and resources. it has continued to be a premiere event for the city. DAGA under the leadership of The De Lucca Family has been instrumental in being an agent of relentless support and advocacy for our programs for persons with disabilities. So much so, that the City of Miami on October 12, 2001 inaugurated the Sandra DeLucca Developmental Center which is the only facility of its kind in the City of Miami that’s dedicated exclusively to operate all of the programs for persons with disabilities throughout South Florida. in December 2015 we will celebrate 25 years of fundraising success as well over $1,000,000 has been raised towards providing quality programming, goods and services to all the individuals with developmental disabilities that participate in the center.
