Your golf course is a lot more than just 18 holes. On any given day, it’s buzzing with activity: a group teeing off, junior lessons, a charity tournament, and a wedding reception in the clubhouse. On top of that, staff manage memberships, concessions, POS, and your pro shop. At Rec, we’ve been working with our partners that run golf courses to learn how we can help simplify this complexity, and today, we’re excited to share that golf is coming to Rec. 

Your course, connected to the rest of your city

Your residents are already using Rec to book a pickleball court, sign up for a camp, or buy a rec center membership. Now, golf lives in that same system. Tee times, lessons and passes sit right alongside everything else your department offers, on the account residents already have. Golfers who come for a Saturday tee time can discover a summer camp for their kids, and longtime Rec users can find their way to the course. For your team, golf isn’t a separate system to run: it’s built into Rec.

Booking your golfers will love

We know how painful it can be to try to book a round online: golfers are stuck using a legacy system that requires dozens of clicks and complex filters just to find a single open tee time. With Rec, your golfers get a simple, mobile-friendly experience, and you can configure it to fit the way your course runs. Golfers can quickly book a round as a single, pair, or full foursome, and you can automatically apply the right pricing for residents, juniors, seniors, and members. You can also decide whether golfers can hold their slot with a card on file, pre-pay, or pay at the course, and Rec can send text reminders and automatically charge a no-show fee if they don’t make it.

"We're excited to manage golf on Rec. Our golfers already buy 10-packs of tee times through Rec, so connecting those passes directly to booking, along with an easy-to-manage tee sheet for our team, makes it easier for everyone."

— Garrett Craig, City of Torrance, California

Simple tee sheet software for your staff

We’ve kept what you love about the tee sheet, and made it even simpler and easier to use. Your team can see the whole day at a glance on any device, check groups in with a tap, and add walk-ups in seconds. Give residents and passholders first access with earlier booking windows, and set rates by golfer type and time of day, including weekend and twilight pricing. Set up your course easily and use the same resident groups you already have in Rec. Your pro shop and starter can learn it in an afternoon, and rely on it all season.

Run the pro shop, clubhouse, lessons, and more

We know that you manage so much more than just the tee sheet. With Rec, you can run the pro shop, food and drink, lessons, and clubhouse rentals in the same system as your tee times. Your staff shouldn’t have to field phone calls and juggle multiple systems just to handle a lesson signup. Now, they can manage it all in Rec.

"Bringing golf onto the same Rec platform our city already uses means our staff can work in one system, and residents have one place for everything we offer."

— Ryan Davis, City of Miamisburg, Ohio

Supported by an AI teammate that knows your course

Rec has built the most powerful AI in recreation, and now it’s coming to golf. Your AI teammate is a great addition to your pro shop team: it can answer calls directly from golfers 24/7, complete reservations, and it knows when to hand off to staff. Because it works inside of Rec, it also knows if your caller is a resident, what pass they hold, and what’s happening at the course that day. When bad weather is rolling in, Rec can text and email golfers to let them know it’s going to rain, and offer a new tee time for the next day. All without you having to lift a finger.

Built in partnership with golf leaders

We’re building our golf product hand-in-hand with our partners, ahead of the 2027 season. If your parks & recreation agency runs a golf course, we’d love to work with you. Learn more about Rec’s municipal golf course management software, or book a golf demo to get started.
