There are multiple ways to add players to an event or league roster.
Master roster: One option is importing players from your master roster. This option is a quick way to add players and all their information into an event quickly.
GHIN/WHS: If you have set GHIN/WHS as your handicap service provider, you can also import from All GHIN/WHS.
Other Leagues or Events: You can also import players from other leagues and events you've already created.
(Note: League/Event Managers can use this import method if their Customer Managers have enabled it. For more details, Click Here.)
To import players to an event/league roster, go to Golfers > Import Golfers from Master Roster / GHIN/WHS / Other (as shown below). Select the method to import players.
Importing Players from Master Roster:
Importing from the master roster? If so, you can quickly search for players one at a time or view the entire master roster and select from there. In the sequence below, we will add a couple of players by searching for them. We also added a couple of TBDs.
Why add TBDs (To Be Determined)? Maybe it's a team event, and a player confirms that he will have a partner but does not have his name yet. Create the TBD, then when you get the partner's name, go to Golfers > Event/League Roster and change it from TBD to the player's name.
You can also select players from the master roster using a list view (as shown below).
Select the players by checking the box next to their name. If you cannot find the player you are looking for, you can search for them on the top right.
Enabled by default, there is an option to include custom fields. For example, if the players on your master roster have custom fields (e.g., phone number, membership type), then you can import that information into the event as well.
Importing Players from GHIN/WHS:
Importing Players from GHIN/WHS? If you need to add a few players from GHIN/WHS, this can easily be done using the My GHIN/WHS Roster or ALL GHIN/WHS options. The handicap service provider can be defined by going to Event/League > Event/League Profile > Handicap Setting > Handicap Index Service. Click Here for more details about setting the handicap service provider.
Import Golfers from My GHIN Roster (GHIN Customers Only): Adding members from your GHIN roster can quickly be done using the My GHIN Roster option. Search by Name or GHIN # (as shown below).
Import Golfers from All GHIN: Similar to the last option, but this allows you to search the entire GHIN database for players (as shown below).
Import Golfers from My WHS Roster (WHS Customers Only): Adding members from your WHS roster can quickly be done using the My WHS Roster option. Search by Name or Membership Number (as shown below).
Import Golfers from All WHS: Similar to the last option, but this allows you to search the entire WHS database for players (as shown below).
Importing Players from Other Leagues or Events:
How about importing players from other events or leagues? Select that option, then the event or league you'd like to select players from. Then you can select players from there. See sequence below.
As you add players to the event or league using this method, you will see them populate below.
You can also create teams on this page while adding players. Two birds, one stone. Turn the team toggle switch on the top right to turn this feature on. For more details on creating teams while importing from Master Roster, Click Here.
