Golf Club Handicaps - to play in Competitions players need an official Council of National Golf Unions (CONGU) Handicap.

 

The Competitions Committee is responsible for the issue and amendment of all exact handicaps of players who declare Droitwich Golf Club as their Home club.

 

Further information regarding the handicapping system can be found in the CONGU 2008-2011 book. A copy of which is situated next to the Competitions computer in the corridor next to the changing rooms.

To obtain a handicap a player must submit 3 x 18 hole cards from his Home Club, which must be marked and signed by another acceptable member. These cards should normally be submitted within a period of six months.

 

Club Competitions.

 

Various Club Competitions run throughout the year. Generally a booking system using members swipe cards are used to enter the players name against an appropriate time slot.

 

If Members reserve a starting tee time and are unable to play it is important to remove the name as soon as possible to enable other Members to enter the Competition.

 

If you are unable to attend on the day it is incumbent on you to notify your playing partners and the Pro shop. This will ensure that no one will be left without a playing partner. A letter must also be sent to the Competitions Committee detailing the reason for non attendance.

 

Further detailed information can be found in your Club diary and the Competitions folder located close to the computer in the corridor next to the changing rooms.
