It s enought that one player of the team uses the app on his smartphone before playing from the first tee that the Golf Office and the marshals will know, in real time and in which part of the course, there are problems of slow play. In this way you can act promptly and without possibility of errors on slow teams to allow a fluid and smooth game for all the players. Speedygolf has different levels of alarms that can be set to your advantage: the Golf Manager and the Marshals, on their devices, can control the position of all the teams in the crucial points of the course and will be alerted by an audible and visual alarm in case of problematic situations. The players also may be notified with simple icons and audible warnings.
Before playing on the first tee , the player turns on the app pressing the "Start" button. If, along the course , the team should slow down the players will be advised by a first "yellow" alert, sound and visual, and (if the situation continues beyond a certain time), by a subsequent "red" one.
At the end of the the game, pressing the "Stop" button, the player will receive a sms with his playing time for further checks. The Golf Manager and the marshals can choose to display on their device all the teams or only the "slow" teams using the same kind of "alarm" if they exceed the selected time. The Speedygolf operations are very simple and intuitive with great results from the first use. The same app can also be used to track maintenance workers and verify the planned time-working.
Compared to other GPS systems that need to install the recorder on carts or on the bag of the "walking" players our app has a lot of advantages
– the Golf Club doesnt need to spend money to buy GPS receivers and recharge them every day
– there are no problems with damages or loss of the receivers
– there is a lower use of energy
– the players can check their playing-time
