Dubai: Organisers of the Omega Dubai Ladies Masters (DLM) have called upon golfing enthusiasts to come forward to be part of the action when the season-ending Ladies European Tour event gets under way at the Emirates Golf Club from December 9 to 12.

‘Golf in DUBAI' — promoters and organisers of the 500,000-euro (Dh2.7 million) tournament — estimates over 150 volunteers will be required to act as marshals, scorers, TV production assistants, scoreboard carriers.

"The role of the volunteers will be crucial in continuing to showcase Dubai as the ‘City of Golf', as we strive to make the Dubai Ladies Masters the most successful tournament on the Ladies European Tour," said Mohammad Juma Bu Amaim, vice-chairman and CEO of ‘golf in DUBAI'.

"We spend a great deal of time making sure the course is in perfect condition and that we have the best players available for the event itself," said Bu Amaim.

"However, none of this would be possible without the assistance of the volunteers, and we are calling on the UAE golfing community as a whole to play their part in ensuring we put our best foot forward as a country."
