Does your club charge members admin fees for casual rounds?

Under the old Congu system you were meant to but not WHS

I thought it was the opposite and you could only submit a couple of supplementary scores , but under the old rules, they didn’t really want you handing those scores in……. Now there was admin in that!

Any club that introduces a fee for casual rounds is just looking for more money and are being money-hungry scumbags. You pay your fees at the start of the year, there's no way they should be able to charge for that again. With a bit of luck, someone will threaten legal action and the charlatans will back down.

Removing prizes removes comp fees also though.

it’s an awkward job for handicap sec to cut people in general olay

weve guys who clean up in team comps/classics but can’t be touched according to GI

I'm sure it has been said on this board many times in the past, it is not about knowing who the bandits are and cutting them accordingly. Certain individuals are very protective of their handicap, some of them are very litigious, they won't lie down quietly and walk away from the club. Proving that someone is building a handicap is extremely difficult.

A handicap committee must have justification for cutting someone's handicap, a series of wins in non-counting competitions, for example, is something a committee can use.

Only the rare case will go to court of course. Handicap cuts are appealed all the time with some cases going as far as Golf Ireland and beyond.

You can't just slash someone's handicap for being a suspected bandit, they will have the right to appeal, and unless the handicap committee can show the justification for the cut, the individual could take it further.

I don't agree with it, but I can see why some clubs might want to charge a fee for general play.

will the comps be free to enter
