Season Standings

RoundBoss provides multiple ways to aggregate player performance across a full season. The league manager selects an aggregation mode in Settings, and the leaderboard adjusts accordingly.

Aggregation Modes

bar_chart
Default

Standard leaderboard behavior -- total points (match play), average/cumulative net (stroke), or total stableford points. Best for most leagues.

add
Sum

Sum of weekly scores across all events. A simple running total for leagues that want straightforward accumulation.

trending_up
Average

Average score per event played. Fair comparison when players may miss weeks.

FedEx Cup

Points based on finish position each week, similar to the PGA Tour FedEx Cup system. Rewards weekly performance.

info
The standings mode controls how the season leaderboard ranks players. Your scores stay the same no matter which mode you pick -- only the way they are added up changes.

Past-week placements use each player's at-the-time (snapshot) average — the average they carried into that week. Because that snapshot is frozen when the week locks, locked-week standings stay stable even as players post later rounds.

FedEx Cup Mode

When FedEx Cup mode is selected, each completed week is ranked independently by that week's scoring metric. Players receive FedEx points based on their finish position using a configurable points table.

The points table is fully customizable -- managers can add or remove places and change the point values from the Season Aggregation settings panel.

Top-N Events Filter

Managers can optionally set a Count Top N Events value. When configured, only the player's best N weekly finishes count toward their season total. This rewards consistency and softens the impact of a single bad week.

For example, in an 18-week season with Count Top N set to 14, each player's worst 4 weeks are dropped automatically.

Fun Weeks

By default, fun week points count toward the season leaderboard. If the manager disables the Fun Weeks Count Toward Standings setting, fun week scores are excluded from all aggregation modes including FedEx rankings.

Purse and Payouts

Managers can configure one or more purse rules to define end-of-season prize distribution. Each purse rule includes:

FieldDescription
NameA label for the purse (e.g., "Season Prize Pool")
Buy-InAmount per player. Total purse = buy-in x active player count.
Payout TableList of places with either a fixed dollar amount or a percentage of the total purse
Min Rounds PlayedOptional minimum events required to qualify for a payout

How Payouts Are Computed

1
Calculate the total purse

Total purse = buy-in multiplied by the number of active players.

2
Pull season standings

Season standings are pulled from the selected aggregation mode (FedEx or standard leaderboard).

3
Filter by minimum rounds

Players who have not met the minimum rounds requirement are filtered out and remaining players are re-ranked.

4
Apply payout table

Each place receives either a fixed amount or a percentage of the total purse.

Managers can preview payouts at any time from the Purse Settings panel in the league settings.

Troubleshooting

The leaderboard still shows total points after switching to FedEx mode. Make sure at least one week has been locked (finalized). FedEx standings are calculated from locked weeks only.

A player's FedEx points seem wrong. Check whether fun week exclusion is enabled. If fun weeks do not count toward standings, those weeks are skipped in the FedEx ranking.

Purse payouts show "TBD" for a place. This means no player currently holds that finishing position -- either not enough rounds have been played or the minimum rounds filter excluded them.
