Frequently Asked Questions

1.  Who inputs the names of the club members?

The member does when they sign up for their first event. That way the name that the member wants will be on the player's list that is sent to the host club and likely on everything produced by the host club for the event. If the member uses different name on subsequent sign ups, all the names entered by the member will be in the database unless the system administrator deletes one or more of them. They can also remain in the database but the member's handicap will likely be incorrect.

2.  How do updates to those names get incorporated into the list?

This is a function in the System Administrator's portion of the system to edit the Member's information.

3.  Will the club Reps get a printout of the members who have signed up?

The system generates an email of the player's list for an event that can be sent to anybody that has an email address. I don't know what other clubs do, but the Musket Ridge Rep addresses the Player's List to himself then forwards it to the host club then cuts and paste some boilerplate info to send to all the Musket Ridge MISGA members.

4.  Will that list include email addresses for our respective club members?

Only the Rep's email address is stored in the system for privacy reasons.

5.  How do the dates on the schedule get entered?

The dates for an event are entered when the schedule is entered either directly using the SignUp System's Admin web site or by creating the schedule using an Excel file. Other information entered for an event are: Time; Cost; Home/Away/Club/MISGA; Title; Player Limit; Special Rules (Tee, etc.); Deadline Date; and Posting Date.

6.  Who provides the specifics about the number of players, tee times, phone numbers, etc.?

That information is provided by the Host Club in their confirmation letter. Some of the information is stored with the event and some of the more static information is stored in a Clubs Database.

7.  If someone signs up and then wants to cancel at a late date what is the process?

Canceling is done one of two ways. If it is before the Deadline Date, the member can cancel them self using the web site. If it is after the deadline and the Player's List has been sent to the Host Club, the club must be contacted to cancel the person. That can be done by the person or the Rep.

8.  Last year we had an "access code" to enter our names on a signup sheet will that be the case this year?

With the new SignUp System you have a choice of using an "access code" or not and what the code is. You just need to let me know what you want to do and I'll set it up.

9.  How far in advance can we sign up?

That choice is made available in the actual event with the Posting Date. Some clubs use two weeks and others use the whole season.

10.  If someone signs up and the club Rep wants that person removed (because they haven't played a home mixer) can that be done?

Yes, by canceling the person's sign up entry. Actually anyone with the Access Code can do it.

11.  When can we start inputting dates and club information?

Once I get your club set up and you pay the SignUp System fee, you can input your schedule.
