The Classic Golf
A full-featured tournament hub with live scoring, a real-time draft board, weather integration, and seven years of history — built for a group of friends and their annual golf event.
Impact: Replaced group-text operations with one source of truth and cut weekly coordination work by an estimated 4+ hours during tournament season.
The Challenge
Every year our friend group runs a competitive 6v6 golf tournament, but coordinating the draft, tracking live scores across three foursomes, and keeping historical records was all done through group texts and spreadsheets.
Our Solution
We built a dedicated tournament site with a live leaderboard that updates in real-time, an interactive draft board with snake-draft logic, a weather widget pulling live conditions from OpenWeatherMap, a countdown timer to game day, and a history page archiving every winner since 2019.
Results
- Estimated 4+ hours/week saved during tournament weeks
- Real-time leaderboard adopted by all 12 players
- Full tournament history centralized from 2019-2025
