Philadelphia, PA, USA (March 15, 2016) – Golf Genius Software announced today that it has been selected by the PGA of Canada to provide registration, payment processing and tournament management software for the inaugural Hyundai PGA Scramble of Canada.
The PGA of Canada expects to attract 20,000 golfers to play in over 200 local events, regional events and the National Championship Final. This is a major effort to grow the game and engage Canadian golfers of all abilities.
“We are interested in all efforts to grow the game of golf, and we are gratified to be working with the PGA of Canada to provide a cost effective and time-saving solution to managing over 200 golf tournaments. Golf Genius has provided tournament management services to the PGA of Canada for a number of years, including live scoring for the PGA Championship of Canada. The Hyundai PGA Scramble of Canada is a very innovative approach to engaging golfers of all abilities in friendly scramble format, and our software is very well suited to this sort of competition,” stated Michael Zisman, CEO of Golf Genius Software.
The Golf Genius registration and payment system will allow players to register and pay in a very easy and straightforward manner. Each local event will have its own website for presenting tournament details, tee sheets and results. Additionally, Golf Genius will provide superb printed materials, including scorecards, tee sheets and cart signs.
“Golf Genius has been a trusted partner of the PGA of Canada since 2013, and we are very confident in their ability to contribute in a very important way to our new efforts to grow the game,” said the PGA of Canada’s Managing Director of Championships & Foundation, Adam LeBrun. “Managing 200 golf events all over Canada is a challenge, to say the least, but Golf Genius will dramatically reduce the workload for our staff and for the 200 PGA of Canada members who will actually run the local events.”
