Back Nine Battles
Your location fields the team; you play for it on your own card. Each week, register for that week's Battles tournament in Full Swing Compete under your own sign-in, then play when you want, where you want, with whoever you want — inside the week's seven-day window. The first three cards count, unless your coach names three. Each card beyond three costs the side a stroke. There are no make-ups.

Back Nine Teams
A team format: your team plays together, at the same time, in one bay — one booking for the team, not one each. Every player uses the same name and email they signed up with, and the team name in Full Swing Compete matches yours exactly.

Your sign-in code
Register your event in Full Swing Compete before you play. Your sign-in code lands in your main inbox, usually from “Full Swing Sports” — if it isn’t there, check Promotions and every other folder. On a national event, a first-time account searches the “National” venue; on a local event, search the host venue’s own name.

Tips & tricks
The small things that save your round once you are in the bay — the white ball, letting the sensors read every shot, short putts, and a bay that reboots mid-round.

Day-of play
Scan the bay QR from My Game in the app, tap Play, choose FS Compete and type your event code. Check the tournament, the settings and your tee before you tee off — and play every hole out, or the round does not record.
