How to start a golf league

Start from your dashboard and give your league a name. That's the only thing required to get going — you can fill in the rest as you go.

Add your golfers by name, with an optional email and phone number. Each golfer's handicap index can be entered directly, or left to establish itself automatically once they've played a few rounds. Assign each golfer a set of tees so their course handicap calculates correctly.

Add a golfer the same way you add anyone else, and check "This golfer is a substitute." They'll show up in a dedicated Substitutes pool your league can draw from all season — see the Substitutes guide for the full picture.

Photograph a blank scorecard from the pro shop instead of typing everything in by hand. The Turn reads the pars, stroke indexes, yardages, and ratings off it, and checks its own math against the card's printed totals before saving anything.

Pick a date, a course, and which nine (or all eighteen) you're playing. Add as many rounds as your season needs — each one shows up on the schedule with its own date and course.

For each round, group your golfers into tee times — auto-generate pairings, or set them up by hand.

Once groups are set, print real scorecards straight from the app: pars, stroke indexes, yardages, and a QR code linked to live scoring for that exact round, all generated automatically. No separate sign-up link to hunt down.

Type scores in hole by hole, or let golfers scan the QR code on their printed card to enter their own. When every golfer has a score for every hole, publish the round — that locks it in and updates handicaps and standings.

Once a round publishes, birdies, pars, and season point totals update on their own — no separate spreadsheet tab to maintain. Every golfer can see exactly where they stack up.
