A Valid USGA handicap index is required to compete in any LPGA Amateurs events and be eligible prizes. Please take this time to verify that you have a service provider to establish and maintain your handicap index.

The LPGA Amateurs Philadelphia Chapter is registered as a GAP member club. We are officially a service provider that is able to host and maintain USGA handicap indexes through the Golf Handicap Information Network (GHIN).

If you have any questions about the status of your membership or need help verifying if you have an active handicap service, please contact Jane Chen directly for assistance. 

After verifying the above, if you are interested in establishing and maintaining your handicap service through our Chapter, please do the following: 

• Click here to access our secure electronic payment link. There is a nominal, annual fee of $30 per member if you elect to establish and maintain your handicap index through our Chapter

• After receiving your payment confirmation, please forward your proof of payment to Jane Chen and Gail Irrgang to review and process your handicap application

• Within 3 business days of receiving your proof of payment, you will receive an email from Jane or Gail with instructions on how to create a new GHIN account or confirmation that your old GHIN account has been reactivated

A new GHIN account will not be established for you unless you notify us in writing that you want to maintain your handicap index through our Chapter and pay the appropriate fee.
