Team cup matches are typically set up and managed by golf associations. However, team captains are typically assigned to every team to:
Add players to their team (if permitted by the golf association)
Enter players into the pairings (matches)
Enter Results.
In this article, we will discuss how team captains can access and manage their teams.
Registering as a Team Captain:
During the initial setup, the golf association will enter all the team captains into the system along with their email. At some point, they will send team captains an invitation email.
The team captain invitation will look similar to the example above. They can click on the link to confirm their account and set a permanent password. A temporary password is also given where the team captain alternatively can go to www.golfgenius.com/users/sign_in and sign in with their email and temporary password. At that point, they will be asked to set a permanent password.
If the invited team captain already has a registered login with Golf Genius TM Club as a player or manager, they will receive an email confirmation without instructions to create a password. They will access the Team Matches portal with their current login credentials.
Accessing and Navigating the Team Matches Portal:
Every team cup match competition will have a portal. This is the public website where the team captains can go to:
View the team cup match information, standings, matches.
Enter the match pairings
Enter results
The golf association may provide the team captains with the link to the portal or the team captain can log into www.golfgenius.com/users/sign_in for access.
If logging in through the direct link to the Team Matches portal, the team captain will be directed to the home page for the portal.
The team match schedule and standings may be public pages, which do not require login. Players who are not team captains can have access to these pages.
If the team captain logs in through www.golfgenius.com/users/sign_in, they will see all the events they are registered for in TM Club. Select the golf association account then the Team Matches portal. See the sequence below.
Managing the Matches on the Portal:
The Edit Match Pairings portal page is only available to team captains. This is where team captains can add players to the team and add team players into match pairings. For details and instructions on this page, Click Here.
The Enter Match Results portal page is also only available to team captains. This is where team captains can enter results to the matches. For details and instructions on this page, Click Here.
Managing Matches on the Event Manager Site:
Team Captains may also have access to a limited event manager site to accomplish other tasks such as setting the course/tee, setting tee times, viewing the handicap analysis, and much more. For more information, Click Here.
