About

What The Tational is

A Bay Area amateur two-person best-ball series, played on public courses, with real prizes. The 2027 season is being built now.

The idea

The Tational is a regular reason to get a partner, show up on a public course, and compete — not a country-club invitation list, and not a no-stakes outing either.

The format is two-person best ball. Both players hit their own shots. The team takes the lower score on each hole. It is social, competitive, and built for a weekend public-course tee sheet.

The first season is 2027, starting with a spring pilot. Founding spots will open once that first event is locked.

Decided — and still TBA

Set: the name, the region (Bay Area), the format (two-person best ball), the setting (public courses), that prizes will be real, and that a 2027 season is coming, beginning with a spring pilot.

Still TBA: the pilot date, the course, entry fees, membership pricing, prize details, field size, handicap or flight rules, the full event calendar, and how season standings will be scored. Those will be posted here when they are decided.

The shape of it

A series, not just one Saturday.

Events

Each tournament will have its own page for date, course, fee, and tee times once those exist. The spring 2027 pilot is first on the board.

Membership and entry

The plan is a season membership and per-event entry. Fees are coming soon. How the two work together will be confirmed before checkout opens.

Players and results

The live site will have player profiles, season and event leaderboards, and a gallery for photos and highlights. Accounts are not live yet.
