How to Host a Golf Tournament or Special Event

Whether you're organizing a charity tournament, member competition, or weekend golf event, Birrdi can help you sell tickets and manage participants.

Step 1: Plan your event

Before creating your event, decide:

  • Which simulator bays you'll need

  • The date and start/end times

  • How many golfers can participate

  • Your ticket prices

  • Whether members receive special pricing

Step 2: Block your simulator bays

If your tournament requires exclusive use of certain simulators, block off those bays using Custom Events on your reservation calendar.

This prevents other customers from booking those times.

Step 3: Create your ticketed event

  1. Open Events and click New Event.

  2. Enter the tournament name and description.

  3. Select Individual Event.

  4. Choose your date and times.

  5. Set the total available spots.

  6. Configure your pricing and payment options.

  7. Save the event.

Include any important information participants should know, such as the tournament format, arrival instructions, and prizes.

Step 4: Manage registrations

Once customers begin registering, open your event to:

  • View participants

  • Check payment status

  • Add bookings on behalf of customers

  • Download your participant list

Step 5: Manage tournament day

As golfers arrive, check them in directly from the bookings page.

If you need to communicate a change, select your registered customers and use Send Announcement.

Remember: Birrdi handles tournament registration and ticket sales. Tournament scoring, rankings, and leaderboards are managed separately.
