Two sides. One cup. Sides Golf is the app for the recurring tournament you run with your friends every year — the one that's been living in a Google Sheet since 2019. Sides handles the draft, the matchups, and the trash talk. You just show up and play. Built for the friend group. Whether it's a weekend cup, a season-long ladder, or a one-off Ryder-style match, Sides keeps your scores straight and your standings live. WHAT'S INSIDE • Captain mode — two captains, alternating picks. Draft your sides like the Ryder Cup, with worse golf and better commentary. • Real golf formats — Match Play, Best Ball, Alternate Shot, Scramble, Stableford, and High-Low. Pick the format your group actually argues about. • Live tournament dashboard — standings, your next match, every round in flight. Everyone in your group sees the same thing, the same way. • Hole-by-hole scoring with qualifier tags — tap your number, color-coded for birdie, bogey, the occasional snowman. Add chirps like "lost a ball" or "great approach" so the recap writes itself. • Tournament chat — per-club channels for the year-round trash talk. Per-tournament for the in-the-moment reactions, mentions, and reactions. • AI sportscaster — entertaining match, round, and tournament recaps. Submit anonymous chirps to the caster to have them incorporated into the recaps! WHO IT'S FOR Friend groups who already have a recurring golf tournament and are tired of: — Reading scores out of a group chat — Updating a spreadsheet on the 17th tee — Forgetting who won what three years ago If your tournament has captains, sides, a name, and a trophy — Sides was built for you.
