Completing your card

Hello Gentlemen,
Scorecards.
You may recollect that we have asked Scorecards to be completed in a certain manner and we thank those who do so. We would like to be kept updated regarding your handicaps, which fairly frequently change, not only via Club competitions but also as a result of cuts following our “Counters”. For transparency reasons, we would like to be able to check cards, especially those in prize winning positions, however, a large number of you appear to complete the cards in a manner which suits the marker but does not facilitate the checking of all details.
Therefore, in fairness to all players, cards that cannot be checked may have to be rejected.
What we have asked for is :-

• Printed name,  “yellow” handicap and any handicap cut for each player, eg J Bloggs (18 - 2)
• Strokes taken and Stableford points for each hole, eg 4/3
• Where more than one player’s score is on the card, please clearly identify whose score is in which column
• If two or more players form a team with a combined handicap, you should also state both the individual and the Team Handicap on the card
• When entering a team score where there are options as to whose score is used, you must identify which scores were used to attain the team score, eg circle them

Please see the examples below!
Handicap Cuts.
As you know handicaps can be cut following a good score during a “Counter” event. These cuts apply to all events in which you take part until the end of that session (currently till the end of March 2022 ). These cuts are notified to all of our group within the list of Prize Winners names for the “Counter” and are thereafter recorded on the sheet used by the Professional to record your weekly check in, consequently for the avoidance of doubt you can always ask the Professional. Currently the following Cuts are in place.
-1 :- Norman Forsythe, Alex Henderson, Bill Rae and Ian Wilson
-2 :- Jim Wilson
-4 :- Sandy Paterson
If you have any doubts about any of the above, please contact an Organiser.
Kind regards,
Hugh
