Is admin website a good candidate to use event sourcing?

I am thinking of refactoring my admin website for golf databases, which currently uses the traditional CRUD architecture.

Is CQRS/Event Sourcing a good model for admin-type websites? It doesn't generate many interesting events, at most it will probably just have CourseCreated, CourseUpdated, and CourseDeleted events.

Most CQRS/Event tutorials/examples that I have seen seems to be more suitable for consumer type websites like Online Shopping cart, Ticket booking system, Restaurant order system, etc.

For Admin-type websites, are we just better off with CRUD, or does CQRS/ES have more to offer?

If most of the events you can think of contain the words Created, Updated, or Deleted then you probably don't need event sourcing. ES is not meant to be a substitute for a CRUD site.
