How a good one runs
What a good mini golf plan looks like
Somebody knows the rules and teaches them fast, tables are small enough that everyone plays, and newcomers are welcome at every table. No experience needed, nothing to prove. Most plans land between 2 and 8 people: enough energy, still easy to learn names.
Tip for your first one: you do not need to know the rules. Say so when you sit down. Teaching is half the fun for the people who do.

Mini golf questions
Do I need to be good at mini golf?
No. There are no levels for mini golf. People come for the company as much as the thing itself.
What does it cost to join?
Your share of the plan’s costs, like a court or a table, split evenly and paid up front. On a free plan, the RSVP the host set. It is charged when the plan happens and is not refunded for cancelling or not coming, so everyone who says yes actually goes. If the plan does not happen, you are not charged.
What if the host cancels?
Nobody is charged, and you get a message straight away. The same happens if the plan does not reach its minimum number of people.
