Creating Multi-Round Tournaments

Updated over 4 months ago

Multi-Round Tournaments allow you to aggregate scores across multiple rounds to determine the overall individual or team winners. Multi-Round Tournaments can be played using a single format or a different format every round.

Single Format Example Formats:

  • 36-Hole Net Stableford

  • 54-Hole Gross Stroke Play

  • Member-Guest Invitational Match Play (Five 9-hole Matches)

  • Ringers (Eclectics)

Multi Format Example Formats:

  • 36-Hole Stroke Play - First 18 Scramble - Second 18 Best Ball

  • 27-Hole Stroke Play - First 9 Alternate Shot - Second 9 Scramble - Third 9 Best Ball

Multi-Format Tournaments need to be set up as Linked Tournaments. For instructions on setting up a Linked Tournament, Click Here.

For instructions on setting up a single format Multi-Round Tournament, read below.

Setting up Single Format Multi-Round Tournaments:

To set up a single format Multi-Round Tournament, follow these instructions:

  1. Go to League/Event > Multi-Round Tournaments > Add New Multi-Round Tournament.

  2. Name the tournament.

  3. Select the rounds to be included in the tournament:

    1. For Events/Leagues with fewer than 21 rounds, you will be able to select the rounds to be included in the tournament (as shown below).

    2. For Events/Leagues with 21 or more rounds, you will need to select or create a multi-round series (as shown below). For more details on creating a multi-round series, Click Here.
      ​

  4. Select the remaining setup options (as shown below) and click "Save".


    For more details on the setup options, Click Here.

The tournament will then be included in the selected rounds.

Format Setup Notes:

  • If you are using divisions, flights, or teams for a multi-round tournament, it is important that you use your master divisions, flights, or teams. You can create and edit these by going to Golfers > Manage Event Divisions/Flights/Teams.

  • You can drop the worst round or rounds of a multi-round tournament. In the tournament setup, there will be a "Selected Rounds" drop-down where you select how many rounds should be used for the total cumulative score (as shown below).


    Say for instance, its a 54-hole aggregate stroke play tournament where you count the best 2 out of 3 rounds. If that is the case, select "Best 2" rounds and the worst round of the 3 will get thrown out.

  • Tie-breaking options are available for multi-round tournaments. The majority of these tie-breaking options for multi-round tournaments use the scores from the final round to break ties. An exception is made when using the "By Selected Course" tie-breaking option, as this will use the round for each player from the select course.
