September 2026 SCGA Handicap and Delegate Report
SCGA Handicap Report
How many times have we played with friends or even strangers, and they don’t have a handicap? They give reasons such as “oh, I’m not good enough, I just play occasionally, or I don’t know, put me down as a 20 and then they shoot 81, or this one, it’s too expensive to join a club.” If these excuses sound familiar its time to get them signed up for a handicap. They can join free for 90 days if they have not had an established handicap before. Convince them to join Rio Hondo for $145. When they join the SCGA, memberships include year-round events, member outings at premier courses (often at discounts), and a golfing community to enjoy.
Our most improved golfers for the period June 16 through July 15 are the following gentlemen. A total of 3 rounds needed to be played during this period.
Our September appreciation day is not a posted round. October is our club championship, and you have needed to play in three monthly tournaments to be able to participate in our club championship flights.
