## What is Side Game Golf?

Side Game runs your golf group's competition so nobody has to run a spreadsheet.

Enter scores hole by hole. Handicaps, net scores, and every leaderboard update the moment a putt drops — across every format you're playing at once.

THREE WAYS TO PLAY

Trips — multi-day golf getaways. Tee times, groups, team matches, and a leaderboard for every format, all the way to the last putt on the last day.

Clubs — a permanent home for the group that plays every week. Rounds, handicaps, rankings and history that carry over instead of resetting.

Rounds — a single round with the guys. Set it up in under a minute.

FORMATS

Stroke Play (gross and net), Skins with automatic carry-overs, Best Ball, Ryder Cup team match play with Singles, Best Ball and High-Low, and Stableford. Run as many at once as the group wants.

HANDICAPS DONE RIGHT

Use each player's official index, or custom handicaps assigned by the admin. Set a different allowance percentage per format — 100% in Best Ball, 90% in Stroke Play, whatever the group agrees on. Strokes apply automatically per course and tee.

30,000+ COURSES

Pick the course and the tees; the scorecard fills itself in — pars, yardages and stroke indexes, every time.

ALSO INCLUDED

- Live leaderboards with push notifications on lead changes
- PGA-style hole-by-hole match summaries
- Spectator TV mode for the clubhouse
- Offline-tolerant scoring that syncs when you're back in service
- Shareable round previews for the group chat

PRICING

Free for trips of up to two rounds, with every feature and every format included. For longer trips, the trip admin pays one group fee that covers everyone — no per-player charge, and no subscription required for a trip.
