GolfHandicapGo GolfHandicapGo is the simple way to run social golf competitions with friends, workmates and golf groups. Designed specifically for social golfers, GolfHandicapGo helps organisers manage players, attendance, playing groups, results and handicaps without the complexity of official golf systems. Key Features Social Handicap System GolfHandicapGo uses a unique group-based social handicap system designed to keep competitions fair and enjoyable for players of all abilities. Handicaps are adjusted using a sliding scale based on competition results within your own group. Players who perform well see their handicap reduce, while players who struggle receive additional strokes, helping keep the competition balanced over time. Unlike official golf handicaps, the system is self-contained within your group and evolves based on the performance of the players you regularly compete against. Official Handicap Games Need to run a club event or official competition? Simply create an Official Handicap Game and players can enter their current official handicap when accepting attendance. Official handicap games do not affect the app's social handicap calculations. Attendance Tracking Players can quickly accept or decline upcoming games, allowing organisers to see who is available at a glance. Automatic Playing Groups Generate playing groups in seconds using either: • Random group generation • Balanced group generation based on handicaps Balanced groups help spread stronger and weaker players evenly across the field. Competition Results Record winners for: • First 6 holes • Middle 6 holes • Last 6 holes • Overall winner Handicap adjustments are automatically applied based on results. Handicap History Track handicap changes over time and view how each player's handicap has evolved throughout the season. Built for Social Golf Whether you run a weekly golf group, workplace competition or a group of mates who enjoy regular rounds, GolfHandicapGo provides a simple and enjoyable way to manage your competitions. Perfect For • Social golf groups • Workplace golf competitions • Weekly golf clubs • Charity golf days • Friends and family golf competitions GolfHandicapGo keeps the focus where it belongs — enjoying the game and competing with your mates.
