The World Handicapping System is almost upon us. From Monday, 2 November, each golfer with a current handicap, and whose home club is East Horton will be provided with a new Handicap Index, calculated, as published from the average of your best 8 rounds in the last 20. Don’t worry if you have not done 20, a formula is applied accordingly for fewer than 20 rounds. In order to be given a handicap index, an e-mail address and date of birth must be held in the system for you in order for the transfer to happen. Please can you make sure this information is up to date. Further information about England Golf’s use of this information can be found at World Handicap System Data FAQs. England Golf and R&A websites also have a wealth of interesting information for you to visit. This will be an interesting time for all of us, please bear with us as we adjust to the new norm. Alexia will be overseeing handicaps when we move out of the pro shop at the end of the year, so any questions in 2021 it's alexia@easthorton.com.
