How Solo Play Works

Solo play in Japan is usually arranged by joining a shared slot. Here is what happens after you send a request, how minimum player counts work, and what to expect if plans change.

How the Request Process Works

You choose a solo-play slot and send the request through us rather than contacting the course directly.

We then submit the request to the golf course and ask them to reserve you into that shared slot.

The course decides whether the booking can be accepted based on current availability and the status of that slot.

If the slot reaches the required number of players for that day, the round goes ahead and you play as scheduled.

Minimum Players and Slot Status

Each solo-play slot shows the minimum number of players required. This is important because many solo rounds only operate if enough players join the group.

•The minimum shown on each slot is the threshold needed for the round to take place.
•Even after you request a place, the final go-ahead depends on whether that minimum is met on the day.
•There is always some possibility that the round does not happen because of cancellations or late changes by other players.
•In practice, solo rounds generally work out fine, but it is best to treat the booking as shared-group availability rather than a guaranteed private tee time.

Payment, Cancellations, and Refunds

Our charge and refund timing is tied to whether we successfully reserve your place and whether the shared round actually happens.

•We charge after we successfully reserve a spot for you with the course.
•If the round later does not happen because the minimum number is not reached or the group falls apart, we send a refund.
•Because solo availability depends on other players, a confirmed request can still be cancelled later in some cases.
•If anything changes, we will update you and handle the refund process rather than leaving you to sort it out with the golf course.

Important Note

Solo play is usually reliable, but it depends on shared demand. If your trip schedule is very tight, we recommend keeping some flexibility or considering a standard booking option as a backup.

Refund Handling

We handle refund follow-up on our side if a solo round does not go ahead after your spot was reserved.
