Season planning for Closest to the Pin tournaments

Fixed weekly tournaments planned once: your entire season ready in minutes.

Season planning for Closest to the Pin tournaments

Most golf clubs run fixed Closest to the Pin tournaments that repeat week after week through the season: men's days, ladies' days, club matches, junior events.

Without a season planning tool, they get created one at a time, each week, throughout the season. It typically ends up with the same volunteer and takes time away from other tasks.

How it usually looks without a tool

The tournament organizer opens the system Monday morning, finds last week's tournament, copies the settings, changes the date, saves, prints QR. Repeats next Monday. And the next one.

For 25 tournaments in a season that adds up to around 90 minutes of volunteer work just on manual setup. Every week someone has to remember it. If they forget, players are standing around waiting at the tee.

Season planning in one go

With recurring tournaments in CTTP Golf, your club sets up the entire season in one click:

1
Choose hole and tournament type. Rules and visibility settings are configured once for the whole series.
2
Choose day of week and frequency. For example "Every Wednesday" for men's day, "Every Friday" for ladies' day.
3
Enter the season start and end date. The system calculates all individual dates automatically.
4
Preview with conflict checking. See all scheduled dates and get a warning if a date overlaps with an existing tournament.
5
Save the series. All tournaments are created at once.

What works well for recurring tournaments

  • Men's days: weekly par 3 competition every Wednesday all summer
  • Ladies' days: weekly par 3 competition every Thursday or Friday
  • Club matches: first Friday of the month all season
  • Junior events: fixed weekdays through the summer holiday weeks
  • Corporate events: monthly sponsor tournaments with set dates

Each tournament stays independent

Even though all dates are created as a series, every single tournament is completely independent afterwards. Your club can edit one single date if men's day moves because of a match weekend, delete a tournament if the event is cancelled, or change hole and time for a specific date.

Control stays with your club. The system gives you the overview and automation, but doesn't lock anything in place.

What your club gains beyond the time

  • The overview is there from day one: the entire season plan is visible to members
  • No forgotten tournaments: the system opens and closes automatically
  • Volunteers don't burn out from repeated manual setup
  • Players and volunteers know when the next tournament is
  • Results and season trends across all tournaments in one dashboard

Set up the season once, run the rest
