Accepting/Declining Annual Review findings

[2blue]

Sorry if this has been answered before but.... Is there a requirement for the player to consent to the changes. They can appeal to the Union, I know, but it seems to go against the principle of not being able to select your own handicap if its allowed.

I don't generally think that the player has an option, he may dispute the decision, I guess, but it down to the club to decide and I believe that CONGU don't like clubs not to go with the recommendation without good cause

The appeal process is mainly there for unfair HC changes I expect

At the end of the day the decision ( to make adjustment),is made by the handicap committee. If you go back and give them new information that wasn't available at the time, I am sure they can review it again.

When the review report is run, it gives various options and suggestions, the actual decision has to be made by the handicap committee. The suggested changes are based on actual results from the previous seasons play, so, it is fairly robust IMO.

Why would you want to decline the change the club has implemented ?

The appeals procedure is being rewritten by CONGU but this is the present one
