Men’s Charleston Interclub
The Muni men travelled to Crowfield Country Club in April. The Muni men were able to carve out a 5th place finish that leaves them in 7th place in the season long competition. The top performers were B. Blankenbaker, E. Stubbs, T. Chapman, and D. McEachern. T. Chapman also captured one of two gross skins. Quite the payday for Chapman.
The planned next competition at Legends Oaks for May has been postponed. The next competition will be at Summerville on June 15th.

You Make the Call
Every month we try to update y’all on rules and GHIN/the World Handicap System. You must post scores for the handicap system to work and to compete in many competition formats. There seems to be some confusion about what constitutes a score that you can post. The first consideration is if it is a competition format that can be used for posting. The guidelines from Rule 2-1a- Played in an Authorized Format of Play follow. You should be using an app (SCGA, GHIN, CGA, etc.) to post on the day of play. And, always post the hole by hole score!
