Membership
- TGA Handicap Rules - Registration |
Membership at SSS Golf Section:
Anyone who is a member of Scandinavian Society Siam
(and paid the membership fee) can become a member of the SSS Golf
Section. The membership fee to SSS is THB 1,000.00 for individuals
and THB 2,000.00 for families.
The annual membership fee to the SSS Golf Section is
THB 1,200.00
Handicap:
The Golf Committee will also on your behalf apply for
membership at Thailand Golf Association (TGA), who will issue an
official handicap (included in the THB 1,200.00 membership fee).
Players have to register all their scorecards to TGA (www.tga.or.th).
This also includes scorecards, from games/tournaments which are not
arranged by SSS. Your TGA handicap will apply – unless you have a
lower handicap from another club.
You can register your scorecard in the follow ways:
1. Online registration on
www.tga.or.th
2. Send your scorecard via (normal) mail to TGA
office
The Golf Committee will after each tournament send
the scorecards to TGA.
Players’ handicaps can be found at
www.zabaigolf.com or
www.tga.or.th websites
Players with no TGA handicap, will play in the guest
group (following the Callaway system).
It is the responsibility of the player to ensure
that his/her data (scorecards) which are used for handicap
calculation is correct. It is therefore recommended to regularly
check
www.tga.or.th . The Golf Committee takes no responsibility if
scorecards are missing, wrong handicap etc.
Members with a
valid SSS handicap are divided into 3 groups (as per TGA handicap):
Group A: Handicap 0 - 18.4
Group B: Handicap 18.5 - 28.4
Group C: Handicap 28.5 - 36.0
Tournament registration/signing up:
-
Please sign up at
www.zabaigolf.com to confirm your participation. The
deadline is Tuesdays before tournament day at 18.00. It is
possible to make special requests/comments. Guest players should
also indicate their approx handicap.
-
A start list with flight and tee-off times will be
posted at the website no later than Thursday at 12.00 (noon).
-
Players who have registered after the deadline,
may not be on the start list. Flights/tee-times will then be
assigned on tournament days before the briefing.
-
In case of a “no show” (which also means not
being at ready 10 min before tee-off time), the player has to
bring a special prize for lucky draw at the next tournament
(Johnnie Walker Black Label).
-
The Committee will also prepare scorecards
indicating name, TGA #, flight number, handicap, and holes where
technical prizes will be awarded.
