GOLF COMPETITIONS and Handicaps Management System

GOLF COMPETITIONS And Handicap Management System

Golf Manager is a golf handicapping, competition and tournament management system. It is accredited for use with the Australian GOLFLink handicapping initiative.

Golf Manager is used to set up golf competition events, record scores returned in those events and collate those scores in to meaningful results, generally ranked in order of merit. The returned scores are then used to process any change in the golf handicap of the players in the event.

4Ball and 3Ball events can run in conjunction with individual events. Callaway handicapping is also available as a separate application. Score card printing is incorporated. Printing can form fill existing cards, print the entire inner face of the card, or print labels to affix to cards.

Score entry can be set to accept only an overall score (Gross or Result), front nine/back nine scores, or hole by hole scores. Where hole by hole scores are entered, the leaderboard and results reports are accurate to full countback level. A report detailing average strokes per hole, hole average variance from PAR, and hole ranking by difficulty is available over any round or range of rounds using hole by hole entry.

Scores may be entered into Golf Manager, or can be entered by golfers themselves via our touch screen kiosk software.

Competitions can be run on any number of courses. Course details including hole length, PAR and indexing are held in the system, allowing automatic calculation of points in Stableford or Par/Bogey rounds to validate scores calculated by the golfer.

Competitions can be set up as 1-tee, 2-tee, 3-tee or shotgun starts.

Integration

In clubs operating our electronic tee sheet software, competition entry is by tee time. Players can be added to tee times by match staff within Golf Manager, or can join themselves into specific tee times via touch screen kiosk or via the Internet. Golf Manager allows the opening and closing times of each competition to be set. Touch screen activation can be set separately from Internet activation, thereby allowing the club to open events for bookings at the club ahead of making the times available for Internet bookings.

Scores from individual events can be grouped into multi-round tournaments, and progressive and final results of aggregated tournament scores produced. This includes Club Championships, and in fact any event over tow or more rounds. This also includes eclectic events. Any number of tournaments can be established and run concurrently. Any one round can participate in multiple tournaments.

Prize allocation can be performed within Golf Manager. Prizes and prize types can be established within the software, and are allocated to each player's prize ledger. Redemption of prizes is also noted to the player's ledger. Clubs operating Golf Manager and our Point of Sale module can allocate prizes to a financial ledger that is available for tendering at POS terminals.

An automated results upload to the club's Web site is also included, allowing almost instant publishing of results to the Web.

Sponsor details can be entered against each event. Sponsor exposures can then occur at the point of booking, booking confirmation, email booking reminders, score card printing, results sheets, leader board, subsequent emails to the competition field, and ongoing leader board advertising display.

Golf Manager has been a GOLFLink accredited software application since 1999. In 2012 the Australian handicapping system will change to use the USGA handicapping model. Golf Manager will incorporate the necessary changes to comply with the USGA model in Australia when introduced.
