“Our tournament went so smoothly thanks to Swoop’s event transportation service. All journeys were comfortable and punctual for our 1,000 attendees – the general public, VIPs, and sponsors had a wonderful time!”

Michael S.

Regional Lead, USGA

The United States Golf Association (USGA) is our country’s national association of golf courses, clubs, and facilities, as well as being the governing body of golf for both the U.S. and Mexico.

When Swoop had the opportunity to support the USGA transport of over 500 people at one of their prestigious tournaments, we knew we’d hit an ace.

USGA needed a flexible and reliable event transportation service for staff and volunteers getting them to and from hotels, offsite parking lots, and multiple event sites over 10 days.

An Historic Association

The USGA is hugely important because it creates and interprets golf rules, alongside
St. Andrews-based R&A (Royal and Ancient Golf Club). The USGA also hosts 14 national championships, including the U.S. Open, U.S. Women's Open, and U.S. Senior Open, and their headquarters are based in Liberty Corner, New Jersey along with the USGA Museum. 

So it’s understandable that we couldn’t wait to join this prestigious association to support staff and volunteers for this particular tournament.  

Multiple Locations, Multiple Journeys

Challenge

Harmonizing a logistics plan of transport routes for hundreds of people across multiple venues, including hotels, event sites, team offsites/dinners—and the golf course itself.

Solution

Our Swoop operations team analyzed the various locations and schedule requirements to create the most logistical and effective routes and itineraries for staff. From there, the schedule was shared with the team—but, crucially, Swoop allowed and suggested schedule modifications at any time through our logistics overview and live technology. 

This was also shared with the client—once they had access to real-time tracking, they could receive timely updates and know exactly where their drivers were at any given time. 

Juggling Pre-Booked and On-Demand Shuttles

Challenge

While we scheduled as many prearranged rides as possible ahead of time, there needed to be space for on-the-spot journeys too. 

Solution

What makes Swoop special is that we have a network of drivers and vehicle providers who can supply rides—from cars to vehicles for larger groups—as and when they are needed. 

All this happens with the same diligence as pre-arranged journeys, thanks to our rigorous vetting process and high in-house standards. 

Limited Timeframe, Maximum Efficiency

Challenge

In an event with a limited timeframe, other transport providers may not be able to step up to the mark due to a lack of resources, too small a network, or unsubstantial infrastructure. A reliable service is the main concern on every client’s mind yet can be the hardest aspect to achieve—USGA needed reliability by the bucketful.

Solution

We gave the USGA access to our exclusive and specially created Swoop app—this technology links our coordinators, clients, and drivers together so they can communicate and see real-time updates.

This app also means that any potential obstacles or changes can be taken care of before they cause any delay, such as traffic jams, road closures, and even changes to the attendees on the day. 

It’s All in the Detail

Swoop can take care of more than the wheels on the road—we can also take care of

  • Security and public safety measures

  • Traffic control
