"N" Handicap

[sawtooth]

Has anybody come across a "N" handicap before?

We have a new member and I have added him to our handicap system based on his CDH number. He is an AWAY member with us.

All looked OK and when I synchronised with the CDH his handicap came down OK but when I ran our handicap report he is listed as an "unknown member". This is odd so I decided to log onto the CDH website and queried his details there. He shows up at the correct HOME club but his handicap is 1.6N (N is also in red type).

I spoke to him a couple of days ago and he mentioned that he had a problem with his handicap that he is trying to resolve before he makes our club his HOME club. I assume "N" handicap is some kind of flag on the CDH whilst they look into what is going on?

Are you sure? He has played a lot of golf.

If it's a N on the CDH website the HC is Non Competitive - if it's Competitive it will have a C in blue next to it

His club may have made it non-C whilst they resolve the problem. I suggest you contact the club directly.

Cheers but his club and the EGU are already looking into it.

@Phil thanks for the info.

That's how it will appear on CDH. On Handicapmaster the handicap appears as a number on its own but with a "c" if it's competitive.

That's right on handicapmaster it's just the number but curiously he shows up Unknown Member on the handicap report.

Just out of interest, did you go to EG (no longer EGU) directly or via your county handicap advisor?

I did neither, the player advised me that his club had taken it up with EG and after it's settled will then move his handicap over to us.

If it was me then I would have probably raised a ticket on the EG website.
