• 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 VSGA/GHIN handicap service is currently $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.
