Reporting Total Foursomes using RE:Event

How frustrating is it to track the total number of foursomes in a golf tournament using The Raiser's Edge?  Several methods are used by the various organizations.  The following points assume you have the RE:Event module for The Raiser's Edge.  This works for registrants and sponsors within the Participant tab.

1. Enter a foursome as a price unit on the Prices tab in the event record.  Then add this as a registration unit (under the Registration tab) in the participant's record with the appropriate number of units.
2. If it's possible to have two companies split a foursome, add a half foursome as a price unit on the Prices tab in the event record.  Then add this as a registration unit in the participant's record with the appropriate number of units.  Then join the two companies together using the "Seating Group" dropdown box on the participant's record.
3. If half foursomes isn't your cup o' tea, then consider using some sort of comments or attributes within the participant's record.  This will lead to queries and possibly custom reports (depending on how nice you want the output to look like).

This is my short list.  If you have any other methods you use to report on the total number of foursomes please post a comment.

Cheers,
