This feature is available for the following products:
Your Event, League, and Clinic, Golf Hub Pages populate your Golf Hubs. These Golf Hub pages act as digital flyers, summarizing the event/league or clinic and allowing players to share the page with others, register for the event, and submit payments (as shown below).
Use Golf Hub Flyers to display your Golf Hub Pages on bulletin boards, in printed ads, or anywhere else with this robust design editor. For complete details on Golf Hub Flyers, Click Here. Note: Golf Hub Flyers cannot be created until a Golf Hub Page has been created.
In this article, we will discuss how to set up and maintain your Event, League, or Clinic Golf Hub Pages. To get assist uploading an event description, and images (i.e., banners, logos, sponsor) from an event coordinator, Click Here.
Note: As you set up your Golf Hub Pages, make sure you click "Save" to ensure all changes have been saved to the page.
Golf Hub Page Types:
There are three Golf Hub Page options:
Event Golf Hub Page: A Golf Hub Event Page can be created when setting up Events.
League Golf Hub Page: A Golf Hub League Page can be created when setting up Leagues.
Clinic Golf Hub Page: A Golf Hub Clinic Page can be created when setting up an Event as Clinic.
As you create and publish your Golf Hub Pages, they will automatically populate into the Proper Hub based on the type of event (i.e., event, league, clinic) and tags (i.e., gender, age, season) (as shown below). For example, a published League Golf Hub Page will populate the Club Hub and League Hub.
You will also have the option to assign tags to the page to allow further filtering when creating custom Hubs. Tags will be discussed in greater detail later in this article.
Creating Golf Hub Pages:
To set up your Event/League or Clinic Golf Hub page, create a new event or edit an existing event as you normally would. Once you have created your event/league or within an existing event/league, you can create a new Golf Hub Page (as shown below).
More details about each item on a Golf Hub Page can be found later in this article.
Publishing a Golf Hub Page
For details on publishing a Golf Hub Page, Click Here.
Event/League Title
Provide the name that you would like displayed in Golf Hub. Note: This may be the same as the name you gave to the event/league when creating it.
Date
This represents the range of the event/league dates and is automatically pulled in from the defined rounds. If there are no defined rounds, an option to "Add Rounds" will take you to the calendar view page. For more details about adding rounds, Click Here.
Tags
Tags can be configured when a Golf Hub Page is created and are primarily used to offer the ability to filter events by tags when creating custom Hubs. Custom Hubs can be created only to show Golf Hub pages with a specific tag. To apply a tag, click "Add," select a category and choose one of the available options. The following are the available tag categories with their options:
Season: Automatically applied based on the season selected for the event/league. For more details about organizing your event/leagues into seasons, Click Here.
Gender:
Male
Female
Other
Age:
Senior
Adult
Junior
Event Type (Event Only):
Clinic: Is this event a clinic? If so, include the Clinic event tag, and this event will be classified as a clinic in Golf Hub. Further, this will allow golfers to filter by clinics on your Golf Hub and see clinics specifically.
Note: Tags are not eligibility criteria settings.
Portal Link
If you have customized or included additional details on your Portal, include a link by checking the box here. This will also allow your golfers easy access to the portal to see pairing, tournament results, and more. For more details about portals, Click Here.
Tournament Name (Event/League Only) (Optional)
Optionally, provide a name for the tournament format. For example, if it is a two-person scramble, a good name would be "2-Person Scramble." This tournament name will show on the Golf Hub Page (as shown below).
Note: If you have created tournaments in the first round before creating your Golf Hub Page, this field will prefill with the first tournament from round one (Rounds > Tournament).
Course (Event/League Only)
Select the course where this event/league is played. This will determine the scorecard displayed on the Golf Hub Page (as shown below). If you wish not to have a course displayed, set it to "No Course." When selecting "No Course," the scorecard option will not be displayed on the Golf Hub Page. By default, if multiple courses are chosen on the Course Details page, the course set on your primary Golf Hub will be used.
If no courses are available, an option to "Add Course" will be present. For details on adding and managing your courses, Click Here.
When publishing a Golf Hub Page, a location for the event is mandatory. When selecting a course, and the location of the course is not set, a link is available to set the location in the course details (as shown below). When you have selected "No Course," and the location of the event/league has not been set, a link is available to set the location in the Event/League Profile General Settings.
