2nd Catherine Cooper 78

Well done to everyone the above as conditions were not easy.
World Handicap System (WHS)
If you have any questions about the new WHS system, please speak to Tristan or Louis. Golfers are recommended to hand in as many cards as they can to count towards the average of their best eight scores out of 20. If you do not have 20 cards in your handicap record, please see the table below to see how many of your best scores are taken:
Number of Scores in Handicap Record |
Average of Best |
| 3 Scores | Best Score minus two strokes |
| 4 Scores | Best Score minus one stroke |
| 5 Scores | Best Score |
| 6 Scores | Average of best two scores minus one stroke |
| 7 or 8 Scores | Average of best two scores |
| 9, 10 or 11 Scores | Average of best three scores |
| 12, 13 or 14 Scores | Average of best 4 scores |
| 15 or 16 Scores | Average of best 5 scores |
| 17 or 18 Scores | Average of best 6 scores |
| 19 Scores | Average of best 7 scores |
| 20 Scores | Average of best 8 scores |

Saying ‘goodbye’ to Pearson Captain
Tricia Morgan has given up her extremely able Captaincy of the Pearson team in preparation for taking over the Captaincy in October. A huge thank you to Tricia for all her hard work and dedication. We are very sorry to lose you, especially as the last two competitions were cancelled even after we managed to win our group stage for the first time in a few years in 2020! Liz Collins will be taking over for the 2021/22 season. Several the Pearson Squad gathered to send Tricia off in style.
