A Golf Canada handicap (now called a Handicap Index) is a standardized measure of a golfer's potential playing ability, allowing players of different skill levels to compete fairly by adjusting scores based on course difficulty. It's a portable number (e.g., 21.3) calculated from your best 8 of the last 20 rounds, reflecting your potential on a course of standard difficulty, and it changes as you play. This Index converts to a Course Handicap, indicating the strokes you get for a specific course and set of tees, making games equitable.

Purchasing your Handicap through our Golf Club ensures that funds stay within our zone to help support Senior, Men's, Ladies and Junior tournaments.
