Our league switched to UDisc’s handicap league app to manage scoring. We’ve been very pleased with the result. A feature that would really help us out would be an “app” that assigns the players foursomes/threesomes after they’re checked in.
We have a little web-based app that we use to do this, but it’s cumbersome to check players in using two separate screens. The algorithm for creating the foursomes and threesomes isn’t too complicated. We have two variations: one that assigns players to groups based on handicap, and the other that assigns them to groups randomly.
It sure beats the heck out of flipping discs or standing in a circle counting off numbers.
Thanks for reading this and giving it some consideration.

ADDENDUM
Perhaps my explanation was vague. Right now, the league manager must manually assign players to Cards after using our web-based app to generate the foursomes. What would be handy is for the UDisc Leagues’ system to have a button that would automatically assign players to Cards based on their handicap, and (possibly) another button that automatically assigns players to Cards randomly. This would be a big time-saver (at least it would be for our league).
