Hi,

Thanks for taking a look at PGLS (Perfect Golf Ladder System). We don't just have ladders here as our name seems to imply though, as we also offer tournies over varying lengths of time. Below you will find everything we have to offer and how they work. All ladders and tournies record losses and scores automatically.

If you like what you see please click here to sign up.


If you are seeing this page for the first time please take a look at the Getting Started forums ...

viewforum.php?f=17

which contains a lot of useful information. If you are still stuck please ask away in the General Discussion forum. We will be glad to help.

A full set of PGLS rules are available by clicking here.


The M & G chatroom is used for practically all ladders and tournies available here at PGLS. This provides realtime chatting for setting up of matches and there are a lot of options on the look and feel of it, one of which is setting your Status (eg PGLS 9) so players know who may be looking for a certain match. The etiquette in M & G is if you request a match, you also need to host it in the Perfect Golf game. We also run 3 weekly events via M & G, which are detailed below.





createAgame © PGLS 2020 is where you can create a games library for every PGLS ladder currently avaialable, invite other players to join it and at the end have your game automatically recorded to whatever ladder it was designed for.


By default you are not automatically added to any of the following PGLS ladders and will need to check these settings in PGLS Participation accessible from the main menu above, once you have signed up to PGLS.
