WHS and Acceptable Rounds

I understood that it was mirrored in the CONGU system over time by the use of the variable buffer zones and reduction amounts ie low handicaps were stronger handicaps.

Ah, that makes sense.

Sorry, I miscounted. I meant
penalty scores and updating scores for the players who return partially completed cards

I'm not sure how penalty scores could be treated any differently. How would you know if a player had not included them in his score?
Incomplete cards are primarily a competition concern. You may be right re handicapping but it really should be a very rare occurrence if you have a robust and well publicised disciplinary procedure in place.

I suspect an annual review will be a very different beast to now.

Apologies - language getting in the way.

The penalty score I was referring to relates to the situation where the player does not return a card and there is no valid excuse as to why. In this case the Handicap Committee have to apply the penalty score to the players playing record.

But again i'm sure the computer will do all this
