We developed a solution to automate the manual processes involved in managing golf scoreboards, leaderboards, and payout systems. The project aimed to address various inefficiencies in manual score calculations, real-time leaderboard updates, and payout management by providing a robust digital platform. The solution also integrated with the USGA (United States Golf Association) APIs to use centralized golf data and player handicap data, ensuring real-time updates for seamless management of golf games.
Our approach to developing the golf tournament management solution began with an initial consultation with the client to refine their vision and understand specific pain points. We conducted thorough requirements gathering through interviews and surveys to ensure we captured the needs of both tech-savvy and less tech-proficient users. Using an Agile methodology, our team executed iterative development with regular feedback loops, employing a scalable architecture that integrated a centralized database, real-time API connections, and a responsive frontend.
