SUGC Competitions with the new World Handicapping System

(Point of Reference a Players Handicap is known as a “Handicap Index”)

During November 2020, the World Handicapping System came into place. For every Golf Club in our Union, Club members were given a Handicap Index. This Handicap Index would then be adjusted at their Club or other Clubs where they play. The SUGC will use the players Handicap Index allowance for qualification purposes. This Handicap Index will be converted at each Club played to a Course Handicap. A handicap allowance based on the terms of the competition or (format of play) is then applied to determine a playing handicap for each event. Players CDH numbers are still active.

Handicapping to bring our competitions into line with the recommended Handicap Allowances they will now reflect as follows, Singles 95%, Better-ball 85%, 2/4 AM/AM 85%.

The SUGC will take the players Handicap Index for qualification purposes. This handicap could be adjusted up or down, when checking the course adjusted handicap allowances on the course being played. Players must play off the course adjusted handicap allowances along with any % adjustments.
