Leinster Golf conducts Greeni tournament pace of play trial
L
einster Golf, a branch of The Golfing Union of Ireland, and pace of play experts Greeni have completed a first tournament trial using the Greeni event management system.
The trial took place during the 2013
Leinster Mid-Amateur Championship at the Grange GC, Dublin on 9-10 August 2013 and used not only Greeni’s exclu- sive pace of play monitoring features, but a live scoring app as well. The Greeni app tracked every group
on the course, providing information which allowed tournament officials to manage the event in a unique and com- prehensive fashion. Commenting on the trial, Teresa Thompson, executive officer, Leinster Golf said: “The
Greeni system was especially useful to us in identifying starting interval times. The players were highly aware that pace of play was being closely monitored, which helped to reduce the time taken by each group to complete their round.” The company’s Steve Schindler was thrilled to have an opportunity to demonstrate what
Greeni has to offer tournament organisers: “Greeni highlights exactly where your problem areas are during a golfevent”, said
Schindler. “The system’s key benefits are in eliminating doubt, and in quickly signposting the groups which are causing delays. “One look at the Greeni course map shows a golf event organiser every group out there,
with instant information. In the past officials have had to guess about the causes of slow play, but now Greeni is here to immediately draw attention to them. No other system pro- vides this information so comprehensively.”
