Handicap Requirements

All players must use their CURRENT Golf Canada Handicap Factor as of the entry closing date of the Local Qualifier to determine the Course Handicap for that day’s competition.

NOTE: Players who are not members of Golf Canada affiliated golf clubs will be required to obtain a Gold Membership through Golf Canada at www.golfcanada.ca. After posting five scores, the Gold Membership will provide an official Golf Canada Handicap Factor. Only official Golf Canada Handicap Factors will be accepted at all stages of the competition.

The maximum Golf Canada Handicap Factor is 36.4 for males and 40.4 for females.

The four team members’ aggregate Golf Canada Handicap factor must be a minimum of 32.0 and maximum of 112.0 (including mixed gender teams).

A maximum of two single figure handicap (9.9 or less) players based on individual’s Golf Canada Handicap Factors are allowed on each team at each level of competition (PGA of Canada professionals are not included).

For example:
8.7 + 11.1 + 1.4 + 10.2 = 31.4 (ineligible, team aggregate Golf Canada Handicap Factors are lower than 32.0)
13.5 + 12.7 + 8.3 + 2.4 = 36.9 (eligible)
2.3 + 11.7 +25.3 + 27.2 = 66.5 (eligible)
1.3 + 5.7 + 9.9 + 28.7 = 45.6 (ineligible, team consisting of more than two single-digit handicaps)
5.6 + 31.4 + 34.8 + 40.4 female = 112.2 (ineligible, team aggregate Golf Canada Handicap Factors must not exceed 112.0)
