Rounding

From April 2024 the Course Handicap will not be rounded to the nearest whole number before being converted into a Playing Handicap for competitions. Please use the calculator below.

For general play score submission, the golfer will continue to use the calculated and rounded Course Handicap, as shown on the tables above , course boards and the England golf app.

Course Rating minus Par

Up to 31st March 2004, the formula used was Handicap Index x (Slope/113). However, from 1st April 2024 the new calculation for course handicap is your Handicap Index x (Slope/113) + (Course Rating – Par).

Under the World Handicap System (WHS,) each set of tees on a course can and should be rated for both men and women for handicap purposes, so there’s no requirement for men and women to play off particular tees anymore. With our gender neutral tees, all can choose the available tees that will best suit their game, or the competition.
