Golf events have never been more important for businesses and charities. From corporate golf days that strengthen client relationships to charity tournaments that raise thousands, demand is higher than ever. Yet many organisers still rely on spreadsheets and email chains to pull everything together.
Spreadsheets might work for small groups, but when you’re managing 40, 60, or even 100+ golfers, things quickly unravel.
The Limits of Spreadsheets in Event Management
Data chaos
versions get lost, updates don’t sync, and small errors cause big problems.
Communication gaps
guests miss emails, RSVPs aren’t tracked properly, and last-minute changes slip through the cracks.
Payment headaches
chasing who has paid, reconciling bank transfers, and no clear client-level control.
Time drain
hours wasted copying, pasting, and manually updating lists instead of focusing on the event itself.
Why Golf Events Are Different
Golf days aren’t like typical conferences or dinners. They come with extra layers of complexity:
Team formats, pairings, and tee times.
Handicap information that needs to be captured and kept accurate.
Sponsor requirements, branding, and charity fundraising elements.
Integration with live scoring or on-course activations like TrackMan.
Trying to manage all of this with spreadsheets quickly becomes overwhelming.
