Just a final word on handicaps, as some members have asked how this is calculated.
All handicaps are reviewed for the start of the year. If you have an official golf club handicap as at 1st January then this will be your society handicap subject to any reductions the handicap committee may deem reasonable due to previous society victories. Members without an official handicap will be given a society handicap.
Handicaps are then reviewed during the society playing year by our handicap committee and published.
If your official golf club handicap is increased during the year this will not mean an increase to your society handicap as some of our members only have society handicaps and therefore could not qualify for an increase during the year, however a reduction of your official golf club handicap will result in an equivalent reduction of your society handicap.
I hope this clears up any concerns.
