⭐ How many course ratings are needed for my course to display a star rating?

Learn about the minimum rating threshold required before your course displays an average star rating on UDisc.

Audience: Course Ambassadors | Level: Beginner


Quick Answer

A course needs at least 10 ratings before it will display an average star rating. All ratings count toward this threshold, whether or not they include a written review. Once your course reaches 10 ratings, the star rating should appear within 24 hours.

Understanding Course Ratings

What counts toward the threshold?

All course ratings submitted by UDisc users count toward the 10-rating minimum, including:

  • Ratings with written reviews

  • Ratings without written reviews (star rating only)

Every player who leaves any star rating for your course contributes to reaching the threshold.

Before reaching 10 ratings

Until your course has at least 10 ratings, no average star rating will be visible on the course page. This ensures that displayed ratings are based on a meaningful sample size rather than just a few individual opinions.

After reaching 10 ratings

Once your course reaches 10 ratings, the average star rating should appear on the course page within 24 hours as the system processes and updates course ratings.

How to encourage more course ratings

Want to help your course reach the 10-rating threshold faster? Here are some suggestions:

  • Mention course ratings in your social media posts about the course

  • Add signage at the course encouraging players to rate their experience

  • Host leagues or events to bring more players to your course

  • Share your course listing with local disc golf groups

Monitoring your course's ratings
