Competitions on 'Away' courses

[SammmeBee]

But the issue is not the format of play or the 'acceptability' of scores but the fact that the ISVs license does not permit them to transmit such scores to the WHS.

So the software is not fit for purpose then.......?!

It is fit for the purpose that Unions specified in the License.

Not sure that an outing day could be considered regular

I found today that there has been further clarification in the Guide to the rules

Clubs are strongly encouraged to ensure that, whenever possible, competitions run in an authorized format are considered as pre-registered for use as an Acceptable Score for handicapping purposes. (GA AppendixA)
