6) The recommendation for adjustments when Girls also play in ELJL competitions is: – When Girls play from the LGU Tees; their handicaps should be adjusted by adding the difference between the Mens’ and Ladies’ SSS. These allowances must be added to the Ladies’ handicaps before any handicap allowance fraction is calculated. Should a Ladies’ SSS ever be higher than the Mens, the reverse situation will apply.
7) Clubs will arrange and pay for the catering requirements of their players.
