"Caddies" is a book category focused on stories told from the vantage point of caddies — the on-course partners who carry clubs, read greens, and act as advisers, confidants and occasional conscience to golfers. These books use the intimate, liminal world of the golf course and country club to explore themes of mentorship, class and access, coming-of-age, loyalty and quiet professional pride, often blending sports action with character-driven drama, humor, or moral ambiguity. Settings range from small municipal links to elite tournament circuits, and tones can be literary, comic, nostalgic, or suspenseful, with formats spanning memoir, contemporary fiction, cozy mystery, romance and YA. At its core the "Caddies" category offers an insider’s, observant perspective on competition and relationships, where the game’s strategies and rituals mirror the characters’ personal growth and social dynamics.
