📝 Event Info
The Event Info screen is where you enter and manage your core event details — including name, description, dates, type, and visibility settings.
This is the foundational setup step for every event.
📍 Where to Find It
To access this screen:
Manage Events → Select Event → Edit Event Info
✏️ Basic Event Details
Field | Description |
Event Name | The name shown to participants in search results and event pages |
Event Type | Select from Boat, Snowmobile, Motorcycle, Golf, etc. |
Description | A short summary (up to 500 characters) explaining your event |
Event Date | The primary event day |
Registration Start Date | When participants are allowed to begin registering |
💡 Registration Start Date controls when the Register button becomes available.
If registration is closed manually, this date does not override that setting.
📅 Multi-Day Event
Enable this if your event spans multiple days.
When enabled:
You can assign specific dates to stops
Participants’ hands can automatically catch up if they join mid-event (depending on event type)
Multi-day scheduling ensures correct card sequencing and leaderboard tracking
This is ideal for destination runs, weekend events, or tournaments.
🔐 Require Code to Register
Turn this ON to restrict access to your event.
When enabled:
You must enter a Registration Code
Participants must enter that code before registering
This is perfect for:
Invite-only events
Sponsor-only events
Private club events
🔍 Event Visibility (Public vs Private)
You can control whether your event appears in search results.
Public Event
Visible in app search
Discoverable by location filters
Private Event
Hidden from search results
Accessible only via direct link or registration code
💡 For Test/Small events, we strongly recommend making them Private with a password to prevent accidental registrations.
🎟 Registration & Hand Limits
Hand limits are now managed in the Sales & Event Items section.
There are two types of limits:
👥 Per-Participant Hand Limit
Limits how many hands each participant can purchase (1–20).
📦 Total Event Hand Limit
Caps the total number of hands available across all participants.
When the total limit is reached:
Registration closes automatically
No additional hands can be sold
💾 Saving Your Event Info
After making changes, tap Save.
You can return anytime to update:
Event name or description
Dates
Visibility settings
Registration code
Note: Sales settings, pricing, and Will Call options are managed under Sales & Event Items, not here.
⚠️ Important Distinction
Closing Registration stops new participants from signing up.
Closing the Event finalizes the event, freezes leaderboard results, and initiates payout processing (if applicable).
These are separate actions.
