In golf, caddy (or caddie) is the person who carries a player's bag, and gives insightful advice and moral support.
In duplicate bridge, the caddy collects score slips after each round and/or moves boards (which contain the playing cards) between tables. He or she also assists the director with the setup before the game and the cleanup afterward.
In older computer hardware, the caddy was a plastic sheath that housed a CD_ROM. This sheath was then inserted into the CD_ROM drive.
The word Caddy may have originated from the Malay word 'kati'. Kati is a measure for tea leaves and is printed on boxes used to carry and collect the tea leaves, hence its use in terms reflecting carrying and collecting.
The caddy is in charge of carrying the player’s bag and both the caddy and the golfer walk at the same pace.
Additionally, caddies are often allowed to play the course at which they caddy for free, usually on a Monday (the day that most private clubs choose to close their course for maintenance).
At most clubs, caddies are paid at the end of the round by cash, or receive a payment ticket for which they can redeem their wages in the clubhouse.
CADDY is a concept that provides all necessary information and tools for industry to allow preparation of "CADDY-conform" electronic dossiers, and for regulatory authorities to review these dossiers.
CADDY also provides a freely available conformity test software, which allows the user to verify that his compiled CADDY dossiers are compliant with the format specification.
CADDY also provides a CADDY Application Guide, providing instructions for industry staff on how to best prepare their dossiers, in order to facilitate the evaluation process for regulatory authorities.
