There were some questions about creating an initial team handicap. As a result, a new rule was created and will be put in place as voted on by the rules committee.
The new rule is this: If you use a sub that has a lower GHIN, or a higher GHIN by no more than 1, then those scores will count for team handicapping purposes.
The old rule stated that you had to have 4 rounds with your partner or if you used a long-term sub, they had to have a lower GHIN than your partner to establish your team handicap.
The following teams will be affected and I will send out a revised handicap list as soon as I go back through all the teams and subs.
Nowacki/Onuffer now have 3 scores and will need 1 more
Andersen/White have a handicap for week 1 and forward.
Schultz/Bines have a handicap for week 1 and forward.
Jamo Douvlos/Sidon have a handicap for week 1 forward
Phillips/California have 2 scores and need 2 more
