How do you start a 9Daily league?

1. Get an account
A 9Daily league needs a free account (Apple, Google or email), so your name and scores stay yours.
2. New league
On the 9Daily Board or the Friends page, tap New league and give it a name.
3. Share the link
Send the link to your group. Anyone with it can join, and friends you already have can be invited from the league.

How does a 9Daily league count?

Every day everyone in a 9Daily league plays the same course, the one the whole world plays. The league shows today and the week. Today ranks by strokes. The week, Monday to Sunday, goes to whoever wins the most days; a shared day counts as a win for both, and on a tie the better average decides.

In a 9Daily league you see the others’ scores after your own round, so nobody gets spoiled.

Who runs a 9Daily league?

Nobody has to. A 9Daily league has no settings and no admins: it is a name and a link, with up to 50 players. Anyone can leave at any time, and it is free. You can be in up to 10 leagues at once.

Who is a 9Daily league for?

Golf group
Keep the banter going between rounds, and all winter long.

A winter league for members, with a new course every morning. More in golf in the off-season.
Office
One round with the morning coffee, the week’s winner picks the lunch.
Family
