Due to changes made in 2021 as part of the World Handicap System, LPGA Amateurs is no longer able to offer a handicap service.  All handicaps must now be issued through a state or regional Allied Golf Association (AGA).

To continue to maintain a handicap, LPGA Amateurs members have the following options:

• Maintain a handicap through a golf club membership, or sign up for the handicap service through a local golf course
• Join an eClub associated with the Virginia State Golf Association (VSGA) or the Maryland State Golf Association (MSGA)
• Join the VSGA eClub formed by the Washington DC Metro Chapter
  

The Washington DC Metro Chapter formed an eClub through the VSGA in 2020.  The cost is  $36.00 per calendar year, and you must sign up through the Chapter website.  Maintaining your handicap through the Chapter eClub provides the following benefits:

• All benefits of being a VSGA member are available to you.  These benefits include:
  • VSGA Tournament Eligibility
  • Access to VSGA One-Day Events
  • Virginia Golfer magazine and a complimentary subscription to Golf Digest
  • MyVSGA App for posting scores
  • Rules Education Opportunities
  • Hole-In-One Recognition
  • Exclusive Deals & Discounts
    
• The Washington DC Metro Chapter Handicap Chair (Mary Ann Graham) can edit your score to make corrections and help with any issues you may have.
• The Virginia golf season is year-round, so you may post scores from rounds played at courses in Virginia, or any state that maintains a year-round schedule, at any time.  Maryland maintains a seasonal schedule, with the active period between March 15 and November 14.
  

You do NOT need to live in Virginia to become a member of the DC Metro VSGA eClub.
