Establish a Handicap Committee

In addition to the definition of the Handicap Committee within the Rules of Handicapping, it is recommended the Handicap Committee be comprised of at least three members with an odd number of members to aid when voting occurs. The Handicap Committee should be chaired by a member of the golf club. An employee is encouraged to serve on the Handicap Committee or participate in an advisory role; however, it is preferable not to have the employee serve as chair.

The Handicap Committee should develop a policies and procedures document for members of the club wishing to establish and maintain a Handicap Index (see ).
