EVNPAR connects the people planning golf events with the courses that host them — and runs the whole event end to end. One platform for a $5B+ market no one owns.
Today an organizer stitches together spreadsheets, group texts, Venmo, a handicap app, and phone calls to a course. Meanwhile ~14,000 US courses5 have perishable tee-sheet inventory they can't easily fill, and no clean way to be discovered. Both sides feel the pain, and the software market is fragmented across tools that solve only slivers of the job.
EVNPAR is a two-sided marketplace plus an event-management app. Organizers find and book a course, invite their group, collect and split the money, build teams, and run live scoring — all in one place. Courses get discovered and fill inventory with high-margin event demand. We monetize the transactions and the marketplace, not the organizer's patience.
Replaces five disconnected tools with one beautiful app — for casual buddy trips, corporate client days, and charity fundraisers alike.
A storefront and an inbound channel of qualified, pre-paid events — not another tool to operate.
A working, responsive product prototype already exists (see 03-Design/EVNPAR-Prototype.html), covering the full organizer and operator flows.
Every golfer who has organized an outing knows the pain: chasing money, picking a course, building teams, keeping score. EVNPAR removes all of it — and the casual organizer (a dad and his friends) is the largest, least-served segment, the wedge no incumbent has taken.
Round up the crew for the trip you keep talking about — booking, money split, and a fun leaderboard.
Turn five hours on the course into your best client meeting of the year — polished end to end.
Sell out the field, land sponsors, run flawlessly — then clone it next year.
Every player who watches a live leaderboard is a future organizer — demand compounds.
EVNPAR is built so every partner makes more money by participating, at little cost or risk. We speak operators' own language: perishable inventory, revenue per occupied tee time, no-show cost, zero added labor.
We size the opportunity by the dollars that flow through golf outings — what the industry calls GMV (Gross Merchandise Value: the total value of everything booked and paid through the platform). EVNPAR earns a small percentage of that flow.
A small % on registration & add-ons, usually passed to registrants — so organizers often pay nothing.
A fee on course bookings — the unclaimed lever no incumbent owns.
From swag, insurance, signage, photography & travel partners.
Premium tools for courses later — calendar, analytics, promotion.
These are estimates to show the shape of the business, not guarantees. Each year we grow partner courses, the number of events run, the dollars flowing through (GMV), and our ~10% revenue on that flow.
| Year | Partner courses | Events / yr | GMV | Revenue (~10%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | 300 | 1,200 | $9M | $0.9M |
| Year 2 | 900 | 5,000 | $40M | $4.4M |
| Year 3 | 2,200 | 15,000 | $120M | $13M |
| Year 4 | 4,500 | 35,000 | $290M | $32M |
| Year 5 | 7,000 | 70,000 | $600M | $66M |
Estimated annual revenue (illustrative)
No incumbent pairs bookable course inventory with end-to-end event management. We own the whole job, both sides.
More courses attract more organizers and vice versa; every player is a future organizer. The flywheel compounds and defends.
Category leaders are dated and complex. Modern, beautiful, mobile-first design is a real wedge.
Free to list for courses; fees pass through to registrants. Almost nothing to say no to.
The largest, least-served segment gives us volume and virality before we move up-market to charity and corporate.
Partner-led growth (NGCOA, management companies, software integrations) keeps acquisition costs low.
We seed partner courses first — the gating constraint and the cheaper side — then concentrate organizer demand market by market. Growth runs through high-leverage channels, not paid spend.

A lean, founder-led round to build V1, prove the booking loop, and reach meaningful course density in our first wave — positioning us for a seed round on real traction.
Indicative allocation; refined with lead investor.
