The golf league will be based on the monthly outings.

However, players with a handicap in excess of the maximum playing handicap for their category will be allocated extra shots up to 50% of the difference of the maximum and their actual handicap.
For example A player in sight category B3, and with an IBGA handicap 52.
IBGA handicap = 52
Maximum playing handicap = 36
Difference = 16

Attendance
Each player will get a bonus point for attendance.
Disqualifications and no returns
