Leagues, contests & mini-games

Golf league and tournament software that runs the whole night.

Signups, scoring, standings, reminders, and payouts run automatically — the same every week — so a great league night never depends on who is on shift.

The engine

Everything a league or event needs, in one place.

Leagues, tournaments, contests, and side games share one engine — set the format once and the calendar, scoring, standings, and payouts take care of themselves.

Leagues

Recurring seasons with fixed or floating schedules, teams, flights, and playoffs — set the format once and it runs every week.

  • Fixed & floating schedules
  • Teams, flights & playoffs

Tournaments & contests

One-off events and mini-games with registration, live leaderboards, and automatic payouts — half the league rate because it is less platform work.

  • Live leaderboards
  • Automatic payout calculation

Formats

Stroke play, best-ball, scramble, Stableford, match play, and Nassau — the formats your golfers already know, scored automatically.

  • Net & gross scoring
  • Handicap-aware

Side games

Layer Skins, Pro-Am, and other side games on top of any league or event to keep every round interesting.

  • Skins & Pro-Am
  • Runs alongside the main event
Use case

Fill every night, not just league night.

Floating leagues and open play let golfers drop in through the week and get auto-matched into a group — slot-based matching for parties of one to four, card on file. It is a use case of the core league engine, live and demoable today, that turns your quiet off-nights into playable, paid rounds.

  • Slot-based auto-matching, parties of 1–4
  • Card on file — golfers pay as they play
  • Works alongside your tee sheet
Fill-rate use case

Floating leagues are presented as a use case of the league capabilities — not a separate product or package. The goal is simple: give your slowest nights a reason to be booked.

Automation proof

The parts that run themselves.

Scheduling, scoring, and payouts are automated end to end. Here is what your operators and golfers see each week.

Automated scheduling & matchups

Set the format once and Fareway builds the calendar and weekly matchups — reminders go out on their own, so league night never depends on who is on shift.

  • Recurring seasons without weekly setup
  • Matchups & reminders generated automatically

Live net & gross leaderboards

Scores post live to leaderboards golfers watch in the app — the standings that keep players coming back to defend a spot.

  • Net & gross, updated live
  • Standings golfers follow all season

Payout report, Monday 7am

Season payouts are calculated for you and delivered as a report you approve and close. Fareway calculates and reports — it does not move cash on its own.

  • Automated payout calculation
  • Operator approves & closes the report
Contest pricing

Tournaments are half the league rate.

A one-off tournament or contest is $2 per registration at founding rates ($3 standard) — half the $4 league rate, because a single event is less platform work than a full managed season. Only non-cancelled registrations are ever billed.

Global Tournaments Live

Fareway-managed events your golfers can just join.

Global Tournaments are free, Fareway-managed events — an easy way for your venue to join existing tournaments and promote them to your golfers, with none of the setup on your side.

  • Free to the operator. No cost to add them to your venue's calendar.
  • Fareway-managed. We run the event; you just promote it to your golfers.
  • Easy to join & promote. Something extra for your golfers to play, no admin.

Leagues FAQ

How the engine works.

Formats, floating play, contest pricing, payouts, and Global Tournaments — the questions operators ask.

What golf formats does Fareway support?
Fareway scores stroke play, best-ball, scramble, Stableford, match play, and Nassau, with net and gross handicap-aware scoring. You can also layer side games like Skins and Pro-Am on top of any league or event.
What are floating leagues and open play?
Floating leagues let golfers play their weekly round in a flexible window rather than a fixed tee time — slot-based auto-matching for parties of one to four, card on file. It is a use case of the core league engine that helps fill every night, not just league night.
How much do contests and tournaments cost to run?
Tournament registrations are $2 at founding rates ($3 standard) — half the league rate, because a one-off event is less platform work than a full managed season. Only non-cancelled registrations are billed.
How do payouts work?
Fareway calculates season payouts and delivers a payout report (Monday 7am) that the operator reviews, approves, and closes. Fareway calculates and reports the payout; it does not automatically move cash.
What are Global Tournaments?
Global Tournaments are free, Fareway-managed events your venue opts into and promotes to golfers with no setup on your side. The prize pool splits 85% to winners and 15% to Fareway. It is a managed service, not an automated cross-venue engine.
