# A golf game for the virtual Christmas party

https://9daily.golf/guides/virtual-christmas-party · Updated 11 November 2026 · 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.

**In short**

- 9Daily is a free daily golf game in the browser: one nine-hole course a day, the same for everyone.
- For the party, colleagues join a free 9Daily league from a link and play the day’s course on their phones.
- The host shares the league table on screen once everyone has played: the fewest strokes of the day wins.
- Nobody needs golf experience or a download, and a round takes a few minutes.

## How does 9Daily work at a virtual Christmas party?

1. **Invite:** Put the 9Daily league link in the party invite. Joining a league needs a free account.
2. **Play:** Everyone plays the day’s nine holes on their phone, before the party or while people join the call.
3. **Reveal:** Once everyone has played, the host shares the league table for today on screen.
4. **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](https://9daily.golf/guides/december-team-building).
- **After the party:** A new course arrives at midnight local time, and the league keeps going as long as the team likes.
