Just like in singles events, TDs and other event admins can manage card groupings for everyone who registers for their event. You'll find the full suite of event admin tools on the left-hand navigational panel, and you can head to the Participants tab to assign players to teams.

Randomize players/teams


Configure round settings

Once you've resolved any warnings on the Participants tab, you can configure your round settings via the Rounds tab. If you're running a multi-round event, then please make sure to set up all rounds in advance of the event. We recommend setting up the rounds at least a few days in advance if possible. 



Edit card rules

Players must be assigned to teams before you can generate card groupings. Once you're all set with players on their teams, and rounds all setup, then head over to the Cards tab to set rules for your card groupings, assign teams to tee times or starting holes, publish the cards and even send out push notifications that let players know where and when to start. 



Generate cards

Now you've reached the really fun part: Generate cards. When you initially generate cards, you'll see a preview (draft) version. Each card will show its starting hole and tee time, team names, divisions, and players on each team. You'll see a button to Edit Cards, and another button to Publish Cards. Look over the cards to make sure they look correct, and hit the Edit button if you need to make any changes before sending the cards out to players' phones. 


You'll see a plethora of useful actions on the Edit Cards page. The three dots in the upper-right of each team allows drag-and-drop to move a team to a different card. You can also hit the + Add team button to put a new team on the card, or hit the gear icon at the top of the card to take some editing actions. The gear icon includes tools to change a card's tee time or starting hole, switch the starting tee order, or delete the card entirely. 


Publish cards

When the cards all look right, it's time to hit the Publish cards button. Publishing means that players can now see their scorecard in the UDisc app by opening up the "Rounds" homepage. You'll also have an optional action included of sending push notifications to your players with their scorecard info (tee time, starting hole, etc). We recommend checking out the Leaderboard tab next after publishing cards to double-check that everything looks correct. 


You can alternatively publish specific cards (and un-publish specific cards) via the Cards tab. Un-publishing a specific card is also an action under the three dots menu for cards on the admin Leaderboard page. This can be helpful if you need to change the starting hole or tee time. You don't need to un-publish the card if you're just changing the players on the card.


Can I edit cards after I publish them?

After publishing cards, if you realize that you need to un-publish them, you'll want to head to the Leaderboard tab and tap Actions. In this dropdown menu, you'll see the option to unpublish cards. 


What if I need to add a new team or new card?

You'll alternatively find some more admin actions available on the Leaderboard page, which won't require un-publishing. For example, if you just need to create a new team or a new card, you can tap the "Actions" button. Changing a score, moving a team to a different card, applying a penalty or DNF can all be done via the diagonal pencil icon on the leaderboard admin tools. Lastly, once a card has finished their round, you can verify the card via the three dots icon in the upper-right of the card on the admin leaderboard page.
