ACTIVE/INACTIVE HANDICAPS
 
 
The English Golf Union and English Women's Golf Association are launching a system that identifies the competitive nature of all members with a CONGU handicap.
 
As of January 1st 2010 all members are required to return at least 3 qualifying scores (Supplementary Scores and 9 hole qualifying events included) per year in order to have an Active handicap.  Those who fail to return the stipulated number of scores will still retain a CONGU handicap but may be prevented from entering certain events where an Active handicap is required as part of the entry conditions.
 
Please ensure you try and submit at least 3 qualifying scores during 2009 to ensure an Active handicap for the start of 2010.
 
For further information please contact the Handicapping Committee or visit the EGU website http://www.englishgolfunion.org/
 

Update:

 
In line with The English Golf Union's introduction of the above system with effect from 1st January 2010 it has been decided that members must have an active handicap to be able to win some board competitions in 2010.
 
The competitions impacted are:-

In order to have an active handicap members are required to return at least 3 qualifying scores (Supplementary Scores & 9 hole qualifying events included) per calendar year
