•
Players
will be required to have submitted 3 qualifying scores (including
Supplementary Scores & 9 Hole Qualifying Competitions and Away score
during the calendar year 2009 (not the period between annual handicap
reviews) to avoid having an inactive handicap for the playing season,
2010. NR’s will not be accepted as part of the 3 qualifying scores.
•
Clubs
will be permitted to exempt players from an inactive handicap
for injury/illness that has prevented them from achieving the required
number of qualifying scores during a calendar year. This will also
include those player who are transferring membership who have submitted
scores albeit at another Club and to golfers new to the game who are
being issued with first CONGU handicap.
•
Players
whose handicap has become inactive will be required to return three
qualifying scores before the indicator is removed. Qualifying scores of
less than 3 are not permitted to be carried over to the next year, i.e.
no topping up of qualifying scores permitted, e.g. 1 score in the
previous year and 2 in current year.
•
Clubs
may impose an entry condition that requires an active handicap (3
previously submitted qualifying scores) for specific competitions only
such as Trophy or Board events. In all other cases Clubs must allow
"home" players with inactive handicaps entry to qualifying
competitions in order to provide as much opportunity as possible for the
removal of the inactive handicap.
•
An
inactive handicap can still be used for social golf and those
competitions for which an active handicap is not an entry condition.
Scores from players with inactive handicaps will be used in the
calculation of a CSS.
•
The
requirement of 3 qualifying scores will be reviewed by EGU/EWGA
During
2010 to consider if this should be increased for the following year.
•
The
active/inactive identification of handicaps will be required as from the
beginning of 2010.
