GEMS is an acronym for Golf
Event Management System.The primary
purpose of GEMS is to produce scorecards for golf events.Each scorecard includes holeinformation for the course being played
including length, par and handicap for each hole from each tee box.The scorecard also includes player names for
the foursome, handicap for each player and appropriate dots on each hole for
each player.
To accomplish its primary
purpose GEMS includes tools for selection of players for an event, assignment
of players to teams with a variety of team selection plans, generation of
player handicaps from golfer indexes and assignment of tee times and tee box
for each foursome.
Once foursomes are created with tee times
assigned it is also possible to print a Player Pairings report in addition to
the scorecards.
Who Can Use GEMS?
GEMS can be used by anyone
who creates or manages golf events for their golf club or for any ad hoc group
of players from the club.It does not
replace the tools commonly available to Golf Club management.GEMS offers similar services for use by
members of a club to supplement what is offered by Golf Club management.
GEMS may be used for
organized club events or for ad hoc events (eg. weekly events organized by club
members) with no involvement required by Golf Club management.
