NEW HANDICAP SYSTEM

WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW

As it is currently not possible to have a meeting and presentation about the new World Handicap System, I am going to put up a series of Blog Posts covering what we need to know in bite-sized chunks. 

Once the series is complete I will invite questions by email to answer any outstanding concerns or puzzlement.

Post 1 - Introduction

1) The new system will start on Monday 2nd November 2020

2) It is a myth that going forward you have to put in a score every time you play, even in bounce games

3) Most people's opinion (including mine) is that (once we get used to it) the new system will be better and fairer and encourage people to play more competitions (no more threat of "up point one" each time you play).
