Far Hills, N.J. - In an effort to educate more golfers to the USGA Handicap System, the Association is adding a series of handicap seminars in September and October of 2003.
The seminars cost $35 per person and include lunch and the "Survival Kit for the Handicap Chairman." They are geared for those interested in learning more about the Handicap System and to assist authorized State and Regional Golf Associations in meeting the requirements of the 2002-2005 Handicap Certification Program.
The sessions are a one-day overview of the USGA Handicap System that includes: Handicap Committee responsibilities; the Handicap System formula; handicap allowances; handicap stroke allocations; and an insight into golf course measuring and the Course Rating System.
