App in beta

Running a golf league should be fun.
Not a second job.

Stop running your league from a spreadsheet, a group chat, and three screenshots. GOWF handles scheduling, scoring, matchups, standings, and standby — from your phone, on the course.

What you get

Everything a league needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Hole-by-hole scoring

Mobile scorecard with tap entry. Auto-advance, draft saves, peer scoring for your opponent.

Match play + stroke play

Both formats per round, with automatic stroke handicap allocation based on running averages.

Auto-generated matchups

Round-robin scheduling for your full season. The Reaper fills in for odd player counts.

Skins + Closest-to-Pin

Per-hole skins competition and CP tracking with automatic winner detection.

Live standings

Real-time leaderboard with split-season rankings, points totals, and tie-breakers handled.

Built for league admins

Configure scoring, manage attendance, handle rainouts, lock weeks, and finalize rounds.

Standby players

Stay in the game — even when the league is full.

GOWF keeps leagues full every week with a built-in standby player system.

Golf leagues were never designed to handle real life. Players miss weeks. Spots open up. Groups fall uneven.

GOWF fixes that. Standby players are ready to step in at any time — filling open spots, keeping matchups balanced, making sure every round stays competitive.

No empty tee times. No wasted weeks.

How it works

01

Join the pool

Players who want in but don't have a permanent spot enter the standby list.

02

Automatic fill-ins

When a player is absent or a spot opens, GOWF assigns a standby player instantly.

03

Balanced competition

Standby players are matched based on league averages to keep things fair.

04

Seamless integration

Standby players compete in matchups, contribute to pots, and are fully integrated into scoring.

The Reaper

Odd player count? No problem.

When your league has an odd number of active players in a week, one player is matched against The Reaper— a ghost opponent whose score is generated from the player's running average, ±2.5%.

Reaper matchups award the same points as a regular matchup. No one sits out. No artificial wins.

FAQ

The short answers.

Is GOWF free for my league?+
GOWF is currently in beta and free for participating leagues. We'll communicate any pricing well before it changes.
Do players need a specific phone?+
GOWF runs on iPhone (via TestFlight) and Android (via Play Store internal testing). The web companion handles invites and password resets.
How big can a league be?+
GOWF supports leagues from a handful of players up to a few dozen. The Reaper handles odd counts; standby players keep things full.
Can players score on a poor signal?+
Yes. Scores are saved on the device and sync when you reconnect. Drafts are persisted locally so you can finish a hole without bars.
Who controls scoring rules?+
League admins configure scoring weights, attendance handling, rainouts, and finalization. Players score; admins adjudicate.
What about closest-to-pin and skins?+
Both are first-class features. CP holes are auto-detected from scores; skins are computed per hole with carry-over support.
