Smoky Mountain Boys and Girls Club Charity Golf Event

On October 5th, we ran the Smoky Mountain Boys and Girls Club Charity Golf Event.  This was using our golf scoring application.  The application is built on Microsoft Azure and uses Xamarin for some of the club management pieces, such as picture taking (Note the picture shown in the scoreboard below).  The event had 65 teams spread across two courses (River Course and Highlands Course at the Sevierville Golf Club).  Originally, there were 67 teams, however 2 did not show.  The system will allow teams to be entered, grouped together, flighted, etc.  There are two key items for the event:
  • Additional sources of revenue.  The scoreboard & scorecard provides for sponsorship placement.  Notice in the picture the three sponsors in the header.
  • The amount of time saved in team scoring, totaling, breaking ties, flighting, and etc. that occur after the event.  On an event this size, these typically take 1-1.5 hours and are prone to human error.



Does your charity have a golf event that it wants to take to the next level?
