About RollupBandit
RollupBandit grew from a simple, familiar problem: one person always ends up running the golf day. Tee groups change, cards pile up, side games need settling and results still have to be shared afterwards.
The app takes that work and does it properly. Tee sheets are drawn in seconds, Stableford totals and countbacks are worked out automatically, side games and payouts are settled to the penny, and once the cards are in the organiser can send the group a clear, complete result. Everything the day produces — results, seasons, honours, the history of the roll-up itself — is kept.
RollupBandit was built independently in Kent by Volkan “Volk” Nezir, a software engineer, golfer and member of West Kent Golf Club. He plays in a weekly roll-up of around forty golfers, organises golf weekends himself, and still runs his own golf days on the app.
RollupBandit is developed through Katana Software Limited.
Why RollupBandit exists
Behind every golf day there is one person doing the work nobody sees. Chasing who’s playing. Drawing the tee groups. Collecting the money. Checking the cards. Working out the Stableford points, the countbacks and the handicap cuts. Splitting the pot — then typing it all into the group chat while everyone else is on their second drink.
None of that is golf. And it always lands on the same person. The job is hard enough.
RollupBandit takes that work and does it properly — the tee sheet, the scoring, the payouts, the results worth sharing — so the organiser plays the same round as everyone else.
It exists to remove administration from golf. Nothing more, nothing less.
Three principles
Only the organiser needs the app to run the group. Everyone else gets a tee time and results worth reading — and can follow the group on their own phone if they want. Nobody has to sign up to take part.
Stableford, countbacks, handicaps, side games and payouts are handled to the penny — and never on show. The depth is there when the day needs it, and invisible when it doesn’t.
Organisers should remember the golf. Golfers should remember the day. Nobody should remember the software. Every screen is held to that standard.
