Evening Ladies

I appreciate that the start of the season is drawing ever closer, I know a number of you have been in touch regarding entering County Competitions and County Opens. 

As some of you may have seen we have tried to open a couple of the early County Opens and the County Championship and we know that some members have had issues with being able to enter so we can only apologise to those members and let them know we are currently working with Scottish Golf to get these issues resolved. 

I have now opened up the Opens at both Ballater and Aboyne as well as the County Championship at Fraserburgh.

To enter these competitions you need to have paid your ALCGA membership subs using the Scottish Golf app or through your County rep. 

You can find these competitions by clicking on the Comps tab along the bottom of the app and then selecting Regional along the top and selecting the Open or Competition you want to enter. (See below picture)

 

Once you have selected the competition you want to enter you need to click on the Green Enter button (See below picture as an example) 

All County Members need to pay the Basic Entry to every Competition or Open. For County Competitions (such as the Championship) the green fee is included in the Basic Entry.

For County Opens if you are not a local member of the club the Open is being played at you need to select the supplement option (see below picture as an example) and this will include your green fee in your entry.


If you have money in your ALCGA account you can pay from this account, if you don't you will be asked to top up your account. 

You can choose to top up as you enter each and every competition, or if you can see from my example (I have topped up by £40.00) you can top up a set amount in advance and then just use the money in your account when you enter the competitions.  
 

Hopefully that makes sense to you all, if you have any problems at all with entering the competition or get a message similar to the one in the below picture, please email me at alcga.comp.sec@gmail.com and I will do what I can to fix the issue. 



Thank you all for your patience as we transition to using technology to (hopefully) make everything a bit simpler to enter going forward.  

I look forward to seeing some of you at County events this season.

All the best

Fiona Campbell - Competitions Secretary
