‘Transfer To Another Club’ Function
When you click on this you will be redirected to the Transfer Handicap page
that we covered earlier.To keep it simple, we’ve included the details of what to
do here as well:
The Transfer Handicap page lets you
change your home club for
handicapping purposes.Your home
club is where you play most of your
competitive golf and you must be a
member of that club.
If in doubt consult with your club(s)
before using the transfer request
process on this page.
If you already know your membership
number from your desired destination
club, type it in to the ‘Member No. at
destination club: (If known)’ entry field,
followed by the reason you wish to
make the transfer.
Click SUBMIT at the bottom of the page.
This will allow you to transfer your details directly to your new membership
profile.
Once you have submitted your Handicap Transfer, your request will be sent to
your existing club for approval. When your club has approved your request to
transfer you will be notified in your Activity Feed.

Feed.

My Delegated Permissions Tile
To access your account details click on the My Delegated Permissions tile.
If you are the main Official administrator for your Club you will have access to
all the tools and functions of the Club Dashboard. However, certain Members
occupy other Official roles and may have limited permissions, as such when
they visit their Delegated Permissions Details page there will be a finite number
of tiles on display.
Delegated Permission Tiles
The tiles displayed on the Delegated Permission page will detail the
permissions assigned to you as an Official for your Club, with each tile
operating as a shortcut to that particular tool set.
If you are assigned as a Club Official you will be issued with a manual detailing
how to make use of these permissions. Contact your Club administrator for
more details.
