Client & Business Challenges

As the national golf authority in Australia, the client needed a streamlined digital platform to attract and serve a diverse player base while overseeing junior, adult, and inclusive tournaments. Their outdated tech stack caused inconsistent performance, hindering real-time data updates and complicating event management. Frustrations arose from slow page loads, scattered user records, and buggy code. Lacking a robust content management system (CMS) and real-time scorecard features, the platform struggled to keep pace with user demands. Determined to bolster engagement and accessibility, the organization sought a modern, extensible solution capable of supporting large-scale events and rising audience expectations.

The Solution

Successive Digital initiated a tech stack upgrade, moving from older frameworks (React 14) to current versions (React 18) and fortifying the CMS using newer Contentful releases. A modular frontend approach supported agile feature rollout and simplified updates for upcoming tournaments. Rigorous debugging targeted recurring issues, cutting user complaints. Real-time data integration facilitated score updates, ensuring fans and players accessed accurate statistics without delay. Collaborative development allowed administrators to manage sign-ups, track events, and scale resources effortlessly for high-traffic periods. Throughout, post-launch support provided continuous enhancements and stability. The result was a polished, future-ready platform that expanded engagement and improved operational efficiency.

  • Tech Stack Optimization

We modernized key frameworks, upgrading React for faster rendering and updated Contentful for reliable content storage. This overhaul tackled code bottlenecks, boosting speed and stability. By deploying targeted bug fixes and performance tweaks, the website now operates smoothly under high load, enhancing user satisfaction and management control.

  • Modular Frontend Development

Splitting major features into independent modules eased integrations and quick feature expansions. Administrators seamlessly launched updates, refined user flows, and integrated new functionality, such as sign-up pages for tournaments. This modular approach reduced complexity, minimized code conflicts, and strengthened the site’s ability to adapt for future golf programs.

  • Real-time Data Integration

Implementing dynamic data pipelines enabled instant leaderboard updates. Tournament organizers uploaded scores, which the system showcased promptly, maintaining 90% accuracy in live figures. Fans and staff gained real-time insights, increasing user satisfaction.
