 2. AUTOMATED INTERNET SYSTEM www.vswga.org

  A. Start up date is May 1, 2008 (nothing before this date will be registered).

  B. New -To gain access to the Chelsea system through the Internet, you will be required to login with your 7-digit Ghin Handicap number (including all leading zeros) and your Internet password. If your Ghin number is a six-digit number, you will need to put a zero in front of the number.  For example, if your number is 123-456, then you would enter 0123456.  If your number is 123-4567, then you would enter 1234567.  If your Internet password is “1234” or if the Chelsea system does not have your email address, the Internet will display your member profile page.  Please enter a unique Internet password and an email address if missing at this time.  The unique Internet password will prevent unauthorized access to your account.  The email address will allow the system to email to you any requests or bookings, made or cancelled, where you were one of the golfers on the team.   The system will also be able to email to you the actual course and time you received during the placement process each Wednesday.

  C. New - Members will be able to state a first and second preference from a selection of three to five courses on a State Day.

  D. New - Members will be able to specify the general number of minutes they are from south courses, the north courses and central courses of the state through the Internet.  This will adjust the time you want when we place your request.  For example, let’s say that you had specified that you are 25 minutes from the south courses, 0 minutes from central courses and 50 minutes from north courses.  Let’s also say that you made an 8 AM request where the primary course was located in the South and your secondary course was located in the North.  Consequently, when Chelsea tries to place the request at the southern course, it will adjust the preferred time to 8:25 AM.  If no times were available at the South course, Chelsea will adjust the preferred time to 8:50 AM when trying to place your request at the northern course.  ALL MEMBER’S LOCATION MINUTES WILL BE INITIALLY SET TO “0” MINUTES.

  E. New - There is no link of foursomes with another foursome.

  F. New - Cart request will be Y, N, or C (C means there are limited carts available and that you will have to call the club to request the cart after placement on Wednesday)  

 3.  HOW CHELSEA POINTS WILL BE ACCRUED

  A.  All member’s play points will be reset to 0 when the new system is installed.

  B.  Each course will be assigned a variable point value ranging from 1 to 3 points. For example, the Dorset course is assigned 1 point, Lake Morey course is assigned 2 points, and all 9-hole courses are assigned 3 points.

  C. The total points accumulated of each player in your request will be totaled together and divided by the number of players in your request to determine a team average.  Those requests with a higher team average than yours will be placed before you.  Those requests with a lower team average than yours will be placed after you. Requests that had the same team average are placed based on the smallest random number assigned to each request during the placement process.

  D. Three and four player requests are placed before one and two player requests.
