The Hub at a glance
A five-minute tour of the Fareway Hub, so every other guide feels familiar.
The Fareway Hub is the website where you create and run your leagues. Sign in at ply.golf/operator in any browser, with your phone number and a code sent to it by text — there is no password.
The main menu
The dark green menu on the left is on every page. It is how you move between the main areas of the Hub.
| Menu item | What it’s for |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | Your starting page: shortcuts and a log of recent changes. |
| Leagues | All your leagues. Create a new one, or open one to manage it. |
| Events | One-off competitions you run, plus Fareway Events your venue can join. |
| Promote | Email golfers an invitation to a league. |
| Settings | Venue details, simulators, payouts and your account. |
The menu can differ slightly by account. If your Hub has no Dashboard, it opens on Leagues instead; Promote appears once your account is linked to a venue.
- Venue name (top left): if you manage more than one venue, click it to switch. Everything you see belongs to the venue shown there.
- Report a Bug (bottom left): click it whenever something doesn’t look right. It goes straight to the Fareway team.
The Dashboard
- The three counts at the top show your active leagues, members and active events.
- Quick Actions start the most common jobs. Create New League opens the league wizard; Create Challenge Game starts a one-off game.
- Bookings shows confirmed reservations for today, the next 7 days and this month.
- Recent Activity is a running log of changes at your venue — what changed, when, and who did it. Handy when more than one person works in the Hub.
Inside a league
Click Leagues, then a league’s name. You’ll spend most of your time on this page.
- League Actions — extra tools for the whole league.
- Add Team — register a team yourself.
- Share — the sign-up link and QR code.
- Participation and Payments — teams, players, sessions and money collected. The Payments card only shows when the league has something to collect.
- League Information — a summary. Edit League changes it.
- The tabs — one for each part of running the league.
| Tab | Use it to… |
|---|---|
| Teams | See every team and its golfers. Add, swap or remove players. Set up divisions and flights. |
| Schedule | Go week by week: choose courses, see who plays, open scorecards and enter scores. |
| Side Games | Set up skins and other side games, enter golfers, and see results and a weekly recap. |
| Standings | See the league table, by division or for the whole league. |
| Payments | See who has paid, send payment links and record cash or check payments. |
| Players | See every golfer with their handicap and contact details. Override a handicap. |
| Prizes | Calculate and record prizes, and follow the skins pot. |
| Promote | Jump to the email tool with this league already chosen. |
| Registration Page | Edit the page golfers read before they sign up. |
| Slots | Only on leagues where each team picks a recurring time: the days, bays and tee times teams claim. |
| Matchmaking | Only on leagues that pair single golfers into teams. |
League Actions holds tools for the whole league, such as Refresh Sessions and Manage Handicap Overrides. Admins also see Schedule All Teams (or Generate Matchups on match-play leagues) and Clear Schedule…, and recurring-time leagues get Schedule & tee times.
