For golf societies

The golf society app your captain has been asking for.

Running a golf society means juggling a fixture list, chasing entries weeks in advance, collecting deposits, posting tee times the night before, and somehow keeping the WhatsApp group from drowning in memes. Comnly gives the captain, treasurer, and committee a structured way to post society days, take entries with Stripe payment links, publish tee times, and send members-only notices that actually reach everyone.

Real scenarios

Where Comnly earns its place

Society days and away weekends

Post the next society day with the course, format, and entry fee. Members RSVP and pay through an attached Stripe payment link, and the captain has a real list of confirmed players a fortnight ahead of the day.

Entry fees and prize-fund contributions

Attach a Stripe payment link to any post for entry fees, away-trip deposits, or prize-fund contributions. Payments route directly to the society's own Stripe account. Comnly takes no commission on the payment.

Course votes and AGM motions

Run a poll to decide the venue for the next society day, vote on rule changes, or carry an AGM motion. Anonymous voting and For/Against/Abstain templates are built in.

Features you will use

Built for the way your group actually runs

Push notifications members trust

Tee times, society day reminders, weather calls, and committee notices land as pushes from the society. No more buried messages in a busy WhatsApp.

Fixture list with RSVP and reminders

The full season of society days, away trips, and matches on one calendar. RSVPs feed straight into entry numbers, and reminders go out the morning before each event.

Payment links for entry fees and trips

Sell society day places, take away-trip deposits, collect annual subs, fund the prize purse. Payments go directly to the society's Stripe account with no Comnly commission.

Members-only feed

Notices are members-only by default. The society's feed is not visible to the public, and the committee controls who joins via a join link or QR code.

A clean member directory

Members onboard via a join link or QR code, entering their own contact details and handicap if you ask for it. No admin data entry and no out-of-date spreadsheets.

Engagement insight for the committee

See which society days are pulling the strongest entry numbers, which members are quietly drifting, and which notices are landing. Useful evidence for the captain at the end of the year.

FAQ

Common questions

Does Comnly work for a society that does not have its own course?

Yes. Most UK golf societies are travelling societies playing different host courses through the season. Comnly handles fixture lists, entries, and payments regardless of where you play. The society is the organisation; the venues are the events.

Can we collect entry fees and deposits through Comnly?

Yes. Attach Stripe payment links to any post. Payments route directly to the society's connected Stripe account. Comnly takes no commission. Stripe charges its standard processing fee separately.

Can we run a society day with a guest player?

Yes. Comnly includes guest passes scoped to a specific event, so a member can invite a guest for a society day without giving them full membership. The pass works for that day only.

Is Comnly only for adults?

Yes. Comnly accounts are 18+ only.

Can we run AGM votes and committee polls?

Yes. Anonymous polls and AGM motion templates (Yes/No, For/Against/Abstain) are built in, with clear results and an audit trail for the minutes.

How quickly can we onboard the society?

Most societies are live in under an hour. Generate a QR poster or join link, share it in the existing WhatsApp or email list once, and let members self-onboard. No admin data entry and no ghost rows.

Why are entry numbers dropping at our society days?

Entry numbers usually drop when society days are announced too late, members miss the closing date because the email got buried, or paying the entry fee is too much faff. Strong societies post the next four society days at the start of the year, send a reminder a week before the closing date, and attach a payment link so members can confirm and pay in two taps from their phone. Comnly handles all three; the courses and the format are still the captain's job.
