Player Ranking Report is ready!

What is it?
This new report can be run on selected players within a group (or an entire group) for a certain event or period of time.  It Ranks each player by Score and for each facet of the game in ShotByShot.com terms.  Further, it supports the analysis with the key pieces of data that most influence each piece of the puzzle.

Background
For the past two years I have prepared this report for RCGA and GAO Junior events.  The first year, I transferred each piece of data (for hundreds of players) from each player's individual analysis and did all the Rankings and summary calculations by hand.  It seemed like a good idea at the time... AND IT WAS as these unique reports were very well received.  So well received that I made a commitment to make it available as an additional feature for the appropriate groups. 

This also seemed like a good idea...  Two different programming companies, four different programmers and countless dollars have passed under the bridge BUT, FINALLY, and thanks to the professionalism of my friends at USchedule, my idea has become a reality.  The Player Ranking Report is now available as a Group Leader option.

Who wants or needs it?
The obvious candidates are:
  • HS and College Golf Teams
  • Junior programs
Instructors with motivated players that want to improve and become better competitors.  After discussing it with a long-time instructor/client, we came up with the following:
  • Build a group of similarly motivated students.
  • It will help if they are of a similar handicap range.
  • Designate Tournament days or weekends during which the players record stroke play rounds.
  • Run the reports and share/discuss them with the group.
This will be great experience and allow them to see exactly where they stand among their peers.  Great preparation for competition and for seeing what it really takes to get to the next level.

What does the report function cost? 
I have not decided yet.  For a limited time, I will allow my current Group Leaders to use it.  If interested, please contact me.
