At Spark, our mission is to bring people together to play golf. Spark began with a group of Orlando locals who wanted a regular night where they could have fun with friends, meet new ones and play golf. It was informal but authentic. As the word spread, more people joined the fun and Spark Golf was formed. Spark is now a nationwide network of 9-hole, recreational golf leagues where people play fun golf, connect with others and experience friendly competition. We bring people together to play golf. Our intention is to make Spark Golf more fun, social and organized than your everyday round of golf. So, find a league to join near you and start playing more golf!

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ScrambleScoring at none against Spark Golf's shown. ScrambleScoring also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Spark Golf's advantage is ratings volume (8.6K vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
