Introduction of ScoreCapture at St Francis Links

We are pleased to announce that we will be introducing the ScoreCapture system to assist both members and staff in the scoring and prize-giving process.

The implementation of ScoreCapture will eliminate the human error aspect from the scoring process and enable the team to go straight into the prize-givings, thus drastically reducing the waiting period for golfers who have finished their rounds earlier than the rest of the field.

The ScoreCapture app links to the golfers’ HNA Handicap system and will automatically calculate golfers’ handicaps based on the selected competition format. This will streamline the check-in process for golfers as well as making scoring far easier, as the app will automatically calculate how many points you made on each hole.
