Is there a grace period before new members may compete in standard flights as fully-functioning club members?
There is no grace period. New members may compete in standard flights (i.e. flights other than the blind bogey flight) as soon as their handicap has been established and they have been added to the NCGA ‘home board”. The Home Board is a report which estates members as fully functioning club members. Establishing a handicap requires the player to have submitted at least five adjusted scores. Visit the NCGA Handicapping web page for more information on their handicapping procedures.
