    Tee Time Connect: A Social Platform for Golfers

    Tee Time Connect brings golfers together around the game they love. It is a social coordination app, not a booking platform. Golfers find playing partners, organize tee times, run peer contests with real stakes, and communicate through dedicated chats tied to each round. A Stripe-powered wallet keeps all payments, contest entries, and winnings flowing without leaving the app.

    Key Features

    • Tee Time Coordination: Golfers create tee times, set the course, date, and available spots, then invite friends or open it to the community. Invitees accept or reject the invitation, and the tee time fills up socially with no course booking system involved.
    • Dedicated Tee Time Chat: Every tee time has its own group chat visible only to confirmed members. Players use it to coordinate arrival, share course tips, and stay connected on the day.
    • Live Score Recording: Players record scores hole by hole during the game. The app tracks the round in real time, giving everyone in the tee time visibility into how the game is progressing.
    • Peer Contests: Golfers can organize contests within their group, such as skins, closest to the pin, or lowest round, with entry fees collected upfront via the in-app wallet. Winnings are automatically credited back to the winners.
    • In-App Wallet: A Stripe-powered wallet handles all financial activity on the platform. Users load funds via card, pay tee time fees and contest entries, receive winnings, and withdraw their balance back to their bank account.
    • Friend Finder: The app suggests golfers to connect with based on location, skill level, and mutual connections. Players build their network and see who is available to play nearby.
    • Group Chats: Separate from tee time chats, group chats are used for broader planning across regular playing groups, club members, or friends coordinating their next game.
    • Course Discovery: Users browse and review golf courses, helping the community discover new venues and make informed choices about where to play.
    • Notifications: Real-time alerts keep players informed about tee time invitations, invitation responses, contest results, wallet transactions, and chat activity.

    User Story

    Mark is a weekend golfer who plays regularly with a small group of friends. Here is how a typical Saturday looks for him on Tee Time Connect.

    • Finding Partners: Mark opens the app on a Saturday morning and sees two friends are free to play. He creates a tee time at their usual course, sets four spots, and sends invitations. Both friends accept within minutes.
    • Pre-game Chat: The confirmed tee time chat activates. The three of them use it to settle on a meeting time and agree on a friendly skins contest at $10 per player.
    • Contest Entry: Mark sets up the contest inside the tee time. Each player pays the $10 entry fee from their wallet. The funds are held until the round is complete.
    • Live Scoring: On the course, they take turns recording scores after each hole. Everyone can see the running totals, which keeps the friendly competition going all the way to the 18th.
    • Winnings Paid Out: Mark finishes with the lowest score. The $30 pot is credited to his wallet automatically. He leaves it in there for the next game.
    • Wallet Withdrawal: Later that week, Mark decides to withdraw his balance. He initiates a withdrawal from the wallet screen and the funds land in his bank account within two days.

    Results

    Tee Time Connect fills a gap that neither social networks nor golf booking platforms address: peer-organized play with real financial stakes, live scoring, and contextual communication all in one place. Golfers spend less time coordinating over text and more time on the course, with a platform built specifically around how they actually play.
