It’s ok to be a beginner. Come join us!

From Tiger Woods to Inbee Park everyone started golf as a beginner. We all had to learn how to make that little white ball go somewhere in the vicinity of where we wanted it. Some of us have learnt to do it better than others, but no one has avoided air swings, chunks, topped shots, shanks, trees and water. Not even Tiger

So why have so many golfers persevered? Why is golf such a passion to so many?

Well…….. it is just so rewarding in so many ways. Socially, physically, and mentally, golf enhances the wellbeing of people without regard to their age, gender, religion or nationality.

Golf can be likened to having a baby that never sleeps, is demanding and takes all your time. You love it all the same and work to help it grow and prosper.

The challenge golf presents you is its magic and the key that unlocks a lifetime of

HOPE – If I keep at it, I will get better!

LEARNING – One more you tube video and I will get this right!

FRIENDSHIP – I love these guys, my golfing mates!

Emajin Online Competition

PLAY IN OUR GOLF COMPS… FROM ANYWHERE IN AUSTRALIA

Are you ready for a new era in competition golf? Our comps allow players of all abilities to play from anywhere, anytime, while enjoying the benefits of playing against a community of golfers. Here’s how you can get involved.

Golf competitions have always been a staple of our beloved game. Think community, the chance to challenge yourself and beat your mates, and of course, great prizes! While our lives outside of golf have evolved, standard competitions haven’t kept up, and their restrictive nature doesn’t match our busy lifestyles.

Too many players aren’t bothering with competitions because they can’t commit to a single club or access regular tournaments. So, we decided to change all that!

Welcome to Australia’s largest online golf competition!

Welcome to Australia’s largest online golf competition! that allows players with an official Golf Australia Handicap to play against golfers from across the country. We wanted our competition to be super flexible, so players from all walks of life and abilities could compete fairly no matter where they are or when they can play.

“It was hard to see so many people unable to participate in competition golf because of time, expense and location restrictions”. says Emajin CEO Raj Narayan. “We are really excited to bring Australia’s largest online competition to life and welcome such a diverse and inclusive community to the world of golf competitions.”

How It Works

Everyone in our online competition plays with an official Golf Australia Handicap. If you already have your handicap, that’s great!  If not, you can get your official handicap through our online golf club.

After registering online, you can play any course you like whenever you choose. Simply submit your scorecard through our online portal to join our leaderboards and be in with the chance to win some seriously great prizes. There’s a box of Pro V balls up for grabs every week, as well as the chance to win a driver of your choice every month.

All you need is an official GA handicap to register in our competition. All scorecards whether they are club competition rounds or Emajin competition rounds can be submitted, as long as they are marked and signed by a marker with an official handicap, and played adhering to the Rules of Golf.  You can submit a photo of your scorecard via our website.

We’ve also got some exciting special events on the schedule throughout the year, including a Masters Week comp so you can feel like you’re part of the action.

We’re Keeping It Fair For Everyone Who Hits The Fairway

Emajin Golf’s flexibility and inclusivity are made possible by the World Handicap System (WHS). Introduced in January 2020, the WHS has unified six different handicap systems used worldwide to create a single standard for all golf competitions.

We won’t bog you down in detail because the WHS* can get complicated. All you need to know is that the WHS allows golfers of varying abilities, on different courses and in various conditions to play on a level playing field. You can take on anyone and win!

So, are you in? Our online competition starts on March 1st and is easy to join via our website. Importantly, it’s also a great price at just $120 per year. We can’t wait to hit the fairways and see golfers across Australia on our digital leaderboards.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team on 1800 EMAJIN.

* You can read all about the specifics of the handicapping system on the WHS website.

Lowering Your Score

GOLF TIP – Lowering Your Score

???? The key is to practice your chipping and putting instead of the long game!

FIVE key tips to help lower your score:
1. Limit the risk – choose the shot you can execute the highest percentage of the time
2. Pace your putts – as a rule of thumb add one inch to your backswing for every foot of putting distance
3. Short Shots – Choke down, narrow stance and lean weight forward
4. Speed and Sand – two major things to remember for good bunker play
5. Putt, Chip, Pitch – Putt whenever you can. Chip when you can’t putt, Pitch only when you have to
