Golf Societies

HandicapMaster for Golf Societies provides a comprehensive solution for Societies wishing to manage their competitions and handicapping on a PC.

HandicapMaster is a windows application for all common versions of Microsoft Windows™. The LOCAL Handicapping editions of HandicapMaster support the full set of competitions provided for Golf Clubs. Handicapping can be configured to suit the requirements of the Society.

There is the option to use a cloud-based database to provide remote access to HandicapMaster for officials and offer online booking and other features.

HandicapMaster manages your membership, helps you organise and process your golf competitions and updates members handicaps in accordance with your Society handicapping rules.

Providing the same support for competitions as used by Golf Clubs in the UK and Ireland, HandicapMaster will process a wide range of different competition formats such as Regular Stroke play, Stableford, Par, Maximum Score Foursomes, Greensomes, Four Ball, Texas Scrambles and 3 and 4 player team competitions.

These may be Regular Stroke-play, Maximum Score, Stableford or Par (Bogey or vPar) formats. Rounds may be played over 1, 2, 3 .. to 18 holes.

Singles competitions may be Single Round, Multiple-round (36, 54 or 72 holes in total) or Alternative-Day competitions.

Results for Singles competitions may also be calculated using 'best' scores from a series (such as 'best 4 scores from 8 rounds to count', etc.).

HandicapMaster can produce Eclectic results and Order of Merit ('Golfer of the Year') results

Match-play Knockout competitions may be drawn and processed. These may be Singles or Pairs Knock-outs.

Handicapping rules may be configured to suit the User's Society rules.

You may change these parameters by running the 'Configure Handicapping Rules Wizard'.

Administer membership with ease using built-in letter writing features. Include the addresses of members and automatic production of letters.

HandicapMaster is a windows-based application that has been designed to be intuitive to use, straight away! 'Wizards' walk the User through the complex operations such as setting up a competition, entering and applying competition results.

10's of different reports are available from within HandicapMaster. Most reports offer the User the choice of who to report (Men, Ladies, etc.) and what data to report ('Current season', 'from chosen date', etc.). All reports are in high-quality page-printer style layout. Reports may be customised with the User's own selection of Fonts for headings. An image of the User's society logo may be included in the heading of each report.

Reports may be printed off or saved in a number of popular formats including RTF and PDF.
