Guides · Christmas party
Nine holes before the mulled wine.
Updated · by the 9Daily team, Berlin
Online Christmas parties need a start that works for everyone, in the office and at home. 9Daily is one: everyone plays the same nine-hole course in a few minutes, and then the league table goes up on the shared screen.
How does 9Daily work at a virtual Christmas party?
-
Invite
Put the 9Daily league link in the party invite. Joining a league needs a free account.
-
Play
Everyone plays the day’s nine holes on their phone, before the party or while people join the call.
-
Reveal
Once everyone has played, the host shares the league table for today on screen.
-
Crown
The fewest strokes of the day wins the party. On Monday 9Daily crowns the champion of the week too.
Why does a daily golf game suit a Christmas party?
A 9Daily round is short, calm and the same for everyone: colleagues at home and in the office, golfers and people who never held a club. Everyone plays alone and compares afterwards, so nobody waits for a turn.
What you need
- A phone, tablet or computer per person
- The league link in the invite
- A few minutes
What you don’t need
- Golf experience
- A download
- Everyone in the same room
What does the party see on the shared screen?
The league table for today: every colleague’s score, best first. Put it on screen once everyone has played, because 9Daily hides the scores from anyone who has not played yet.
Ideas for a 9Daily Christmas party
- Warm-up
- Play while people join the call; the table goes up once the last one has finished.
- Office and home together
- Everyone plays on their own device, so 9Daily works the same at a desk and on the sofa.
- December champion
- Run the league all December and crown the champion at the party: a December team-building game.
- After the party
- A new course arrives at midnight local time, and the league keeps going as long as the team likes.
