Match Results

Purpose

The Match Results collection holds scores and results from matches your club plays — inter-club games, league fixtures, cup ties. It's structured per-match with teams, players, and scores, separate from the lighter Events collection.

When to use this

Inter-club matches, league fixtures, cup competitions where you need a structured result (not just a write-up).
For competitions run internally (medal, stableford), use Events plus the Golf Genius sync.
For a quick write-up with a photo, use a Post.

Key fields

Scores — per-pairing or per-player depending on the format.
Format — Foursomes, Greensomes, Singles, Stableford (set the column layout).
External ID / Source — set automatically for matches synced from Intelligent Golf.

On a Page or Post, add a Match Results block.

The block renders a tidy results table.

Sync from Intelligent Golf

If your club has the Intelligent Golf integration enabled, matches are imported automatically by the supplier integration service. Don't enter synced matches by hand — your edits will be overwritten on the next sync.

Gotchas

Player names must match Member directory entries for any "view profile" link to work. Otherwise they render as plain text.
Past matches are immutable in practice — editing a published result is allowed but member expectations are high. Add a "Result corrected on {date}: {reason}" note in the description.
Format determines which columns render — switching format on a published match can blank out scores. Save a draft and double-check before publishing.
