USGA Handicap System Licensing Program for Clubs

The Licensing Program for Clubs is required for all clubs in the United States that wish to issue a USGA Handicap Index to its members. Part of the licensing process includes meeting the Club Compliance Checklist items, one item of which is attending a handicap seminar and successfully passing the quiz. Any club representative can complete this requirement on behalf of their golf club.

Golf clubs that are currently licensed will remain so until December 31, 2011, provided a representative of the club completes the seminar/quiz requirement during the 2008-2011 term.
