Can anyone create an event?

Yes! Anyone who has a UDisc account can create a UDisc Event. Allowing anyone to create an event means that Tournament Directors (TDs) don’t have to be the one to list and event, and can have someone else list an event for them.

When creating an event, you're prompted to list event staff. If you’re listing an event on behalf of someone else, then we highly recommend you add this person to the event staff list. Doing so means that they will have access to edit all details of the event. If you don’t know how to link the event organizer, reach out first to let them know you’d like to list the event on UDisc Events and need their UDisc username, email, or PDGA # to do so.


Where can I add TD details? Can I add multiple phone numbers and emails?

When creating your event, you’ll be asked to add contact details and any Event Admin associated with the event. For the purpose of keeping contact easy for both players and TDs when asked “Who is the event contact?”, only one email and phone number may be listed. If you have multiple contact methods that you’d like to add for the event, listing these in the Event Description is a great option.


Next, you’ll add the Event Admin(s). Each Event Admin must have a UDisc account in order to be added and have access to manage the event. You’ll be prompted to enter the staff member’s UDisc username, email or PDGA #, select their position, and allow this staff member to edit the event.

If I create an event and remove myself as staff, will I still have access to edit the event?

No. If you create an event and remove yourself, you will no longer have access to edit the event. This may come about if you are adding an event as a favor to the TD, and add only the event staff. If you remove yourself from the event you will no longer have access to edit the event, but the TDs that you have added will!

If you should be listed as staff for an event on UDisc, but don’t currently have access, please reach out to the UDisc team at help@udisc.com and we will be happy to assist.


When creating an event, will I be notified if there is already another event taking place on the course that day?

Currently, there is nothing automatic to prompt you. We suggest that you take a look at the course listing, either in the app or online, and check the course calendar for upcoming events. Any event listed on UDisc Events will automatically sync to the Course Calendar, so everyone is aware of which events are taking place on the course.


Is there a way to duplicate an existing event?

Yes! To duplicate an event tap into the settings tab and select "Duplicate this event." If duplicating a league event, head to the Events tab in your League tools, tap the 3 stacked dots, then "Duplicate this event." More details in this dedicated article.


Can I download a QR code for my event?

Yes! On the left-hand side of your event admin tools, you'll see a Quick link tab, which includes a printable, downloadable QR code for the event listing page. The Dashboard tab also shows how many times your event has been viewed, and links you to the QR code under "View/share event quick link". Learn more here. 

 

Can I list a private event? Can I create an event on a private course?

Yes, you can create private event listings. This includes events at courses that are listed as Private: Invite Only, have a private location, or are listed as unavailable. The primary course for a new league must be a publicly accessible course, and then you will be able to schedule custom league events at a private course. 


I’m having an event at a course not listed in the app. Can I list this event?

Both Leagues and Events are synced with the Course Calendar, which means that any League or Event added must be associated with a course or store listed in the app. If you are hosting an event that’s not at a course or store, it is not possible to add your event to the app. Hosting an event at a course or store that just hasn’t been added to the app quite yet? Please add it! In the mobile app, head to More → Add New Course or Add Store, or online at udisc.com/stores/add and udisc.com/courses/add.


My tournament is taking place at multiple courses; can I add multiple courses to the event?

Yes! When adding your event, you’ll be prompted to enter the course or store name(s). Here you can add multiple courses or stores as needed! If you've forgotten to add a course when you initially create your event, head to the Schedule tab and a add a new course.



Webinar Series

The UDisc Team is hosting a series of webinars to provide more in-depth information about UDisc Events. Check out the recorded sessions below:


Phase 1, UDisc Event Release! 

Phase 2, UDisc Registration and Scoring

 

Leagues vs. UDisc Events

What’s the difference between UDisc Leagues and UDisc Events?

Leagues are scored events that most commonly take place on a recurring basis, while an event can be a tournament, clinic, or course clean-up. UDisc Events scoring, leaderboards, and registration is available NOW! Payments, along with a few other fun features, are all coming soon.


Do I need to create another event if I have already created a League event?

No! Any event, whether it be a League or an event created through UDisc Events, will automatically sync with the Course Calendar. If you've already created a League event, then you don't need to create another event too.


Where did the League search feature go? How can I easily find my League?

UDisc Leagues and UDisc Events can now all be searched for in the Events tab in app, or by heading to udisc.com/events. We’ve added some fun filters to easily search events or leagues including searching for event types (e.g.,Tournaments, Leagues, PDGA-sanctioned events, Course Cleanups, Glow, Women’s, and Charity.) You’ll also find filter options for When (e.g., Upcoming, Today, Search by Date), Where (try out the “Near Me” feature!), and a search box that allows you to search for an event by name.


If you are a League or Event Admin and want to quickly edit your listing from the mobile app, head to More → Dashboard → tap your League or Event name, and you’ll be directed to the admin tools!
