Find Local Golf Tournaments and Courses

Like many golfers, we enjoy playing in amateur golf tournaments all season long. Tournaments are a great way to engage in some friendly competition, meet other like-minded people, have great times and play on some fantastic golf courses.

The problem has always been discovering when these tournaments happened and which golf courses they're played. Historically, there have been 3 methods of finding new golf tournaments:

1. Word of Mouth. The most reliable but also the most sporadic. Will you remember to tell your friends? Will your friends remember to tell you? What if your friends (or you) are away for a while? What if you have no close friends on a golf course you like to play on? This is hopelessly hit-or-miss.
   
   
2. Golf Course Bulletin Board. This has been the method we've used for years. The rub here is that you have to physically be inside all these clubhouses in order to see the bulletin boards. What if a golf course you rarely visit has a great tournament you'd like to play? Unless you have a network of golf friends at all your favorite courses (and even some courses you don't consider your favorites), you're always going to miss out.
   
   
3. Local Newspaper. This method works but combines the worst of both the above methods. First, you have to rely on the fact that the courses actually send in their updated tournament agendas to the papers (most don't). Second, you have to read the paper every day to spot these announcements. If there are announced tournaments, they're usually buried in the local sports section and are rarely complete. If you like to play on courses outside your immediate area, this method is a total bust.
   
   

With these problems in mind, we've created Hole in 6, the online golf tournament directory. From this site, you can do some incredible things never before possible. Namely:

• Find golf tournaments with a search engine tailored specifically for golf tournaments! Search by the format, entry fee, number of players, courses, etc. Never before has there been such a simple way to find the golf tournaments you want to play.
  
  
• Can't find a golf tournament you know exists? Don't wait for the golf course to enter it and add it yourself. Any user can sign up for an account and add golf tournaments to Hole in 6. This allows dedicated golfers to contribute golf tournaments they know about, giving the users control of the clubhouse bulletin board! We know that when golf fanatics have control, everyone wins.
  
  
• Stay up to date on the latest golf tournaments added to your favorite golf courses by subscribing to any course's customized RSS feed (what is RSS?). With this must-have feature, golfers can be notified when golf tournaments are added or updated on their favorite courses without having to constantly search online.
  
  
• Can't find your golf course? You can add that too. Golfers can also update all kinds of golf course info like contact information, green's fees, membership dues, and more. This way, golfers can save a call to the clubhouse for basic information.
  
  

We hope that golfers everywhere find Hole in 6 as useful as we do.
