• Stroke Index Allocation Entry
    (Formerly called "Allocation of Handicap Strokes")

    With the introduction of the World Handicapping System (WHS) in 2020, hole-by-hole posting is going to be the recommended method of entry for golfers. In order to make this available to clubs, the CGA will be maintaining the Stroke Index Allocations for your club to be used in the handicapping and score posting software. Please enter your allocations in one of the forms below!

    • Use a separate form to request allocations for EACH course.
      One course per form.

    • When finished, please click on the SUBMIT button at the very bottom of the form. Thank you.

    • If you have any questions, please send them to: strokeindex@carolinasgolf.org

  • IMPORTANT

    Please note also that the USGA recommendations for determining Stroke Index Allocations will be changing with the introduction of the WHS. Where it was previously based upon an analysis of hole-by-hole scores by golfers, the recommendation is now going to look at Course Rating data as a starting point. The CGA will be providing the recommended allocations to clubs, when the software is available. Note that this is recommended, but not required. Your club may continue to use your current allocations as entered above, if desired.

    Please indicate in the check box below if you would like to receive information on the new recommended allocations when they are available.
