Sunday Weekly –> UDisc Leagues Scoring

July 17, 2020 in Announcements, Events

In an effort to eliminate any risk of COVID-19 transmission through handling paper scorecards, we have decided to adopt UDisc Leagues for collection of scores for the Sunday Weekly. Please review ALL the information below, here, and here PRIOR to attending a Sunday Weekly. 

REMINDER: TDs will disqualify anyone who is egregiously not following the posted Health Precautions and Distancing Protocols.

1. Sign-up and Payment:

You must sign in with the TD before your round*. The TD will record your name and whether you have paid or not. Bring exact change, $5. Any bills above $5 will be viewed as a donation to the club.

*You may begin your round before the TD arrives, but YOU MUST create your UDisc scorecard PRIOR to starting your round so that we know you are on the course and owe $5. In this situation, you must pay before Hole 10.

The Weekly entry fee is $5. $4 goes to the week’s payout, and $1 goes to the Ace Pot. You must have an established handicap (2 previously recorded weeklies) to be eligible for payout. Players without a handicap can enter the ace pot but the cost is still $5.

2. UDisc Check-in:

To play the weekly, YOU MUST HAVE A UDISC ACCOUNT. If you do not already have a UDisc account and do not want to download the app yourself, you can have a cardmate check you in with a username and email address, which will create an account for you.

3. Create a Scorecard:

Find the the “GGP Sunday Weekly” league on the “Events” tab in UDisc. Tap “Check-in”. When checking in, use the same first and last name that you’ve previously used in SFDGC weekly tournaments.

Groups must have at least 3 players to a card, but not more than 4. Please try to create groups of exactly 4 when possible. Follow all current rules of the course that are posted at Hole 1’s teepad and throughout the course.

**One and only one person in each group** needs to create the scorecard for the group. Once all players in a group are checked in, scorecards can be created using the Create Scorecard button. Once the scorecard is created for the group, anyone in the group can also keep score or follow along on their own phone.

If a player needs to be added to or removed from the scorecard after it’s been created, use the menu button in the top right corner of the scorecard and choose “Add / Remove Player”.
**Please note that all changes to scorecards are tracked**

Upon completion of your round, everyone in the group should double check their score. Once this is done, the person with the live scorecard should tap “Finish Round” then “Finalize” to submit your score to the TD(s).

RESULTS AND PAYOUTS:
The TD will submit all scores to the league scorekeeper for application of adjusted scores, updated handicaps, results, and payouts. This part of the process is unchanged. All results are published on our website, typically within a few days.
