Golfnet.ie: new member with handicap showing as N/A

    Hey,
    I've joined as club as a country member and handed in the 3 cards for my handicap.

    I got the chip card in the post and have a login for the golfnet.ie site.

    Now the club told me i was getting 18 but upon logon to that site I see my handicap is listed as N/A although all my other information is correct.

    Is this the clubs fault or the sites ?

    Probably the club havn't had "handicap counting" competitions yet... i.e 18 hole full competitions.

    Did you click on member details and handicap details...???

    Your handicap record will say n/a but the other stuff should be up to date

    Yeah, that could be it, they've only had 9 hole members competitions so far.
    Check member and handicap details and waiting on a call back from the club captain.
    All other records up to date.

    If I hand in a card in an open competition though will it be disqualified ?

    Shouldn't be.. I would get a handicap cert or letter from your club stating your h/cap..thats routine and shouldn't be a problem.

    Make sure they stamp it.

    The "18" is only a provisional handicap, you will onyl get an official handicap once three qualifying rounds have been recorded.

    GUI rules. If you win a club competition you should not be disqualified.

    Not strictly true. A club may allocate a handicap once three cards have been submitted and that is that.

    A club may also allocate a provisional handicap after three cards are submitted and then review it after three cards are submitted.
