Score-Cards (Extra-Day-Score)

Germany and Switzerland

and

Players can improve (and of course worsen) their handicap not only by playing in competitions but also by playing so-called EDS rounds. An EDS round is either an 18-hole or a 9-hole round.
An EDS round can be played by players registered with a Swiss home club on all golf clubs and golf courses affiliated with the ASG (Swiss Golf Association). An EDS round can be played by players registered with a German home club on all golf clubs and golf courses affiliated to the DGV (German Golf Association). EDS results are sent to the home club via the intranet.

The following criteria must be met (Switzerland, as of June 17, 2020). Verifying them in advance might be helpful:

  • EDS rounds can be played by any number of players
  • EDS rounds are played over 18 or 9 holes
  • EDS rounds are allowed for handicap categories 2 to 6
  • Handicap class 1 cannot be achieved with an EDS round.
  • Is an EDS still allowed on the scheduled match day? Please see allowed combinations of tournaments and EDS per day.
  • PC CADDIE warns you if you want to print an EDS scorecard for a player with a foreign home club.

Changed criteria in times of CORONA (only in Germany, PC CADDIE update from 18.06.2020)

  • Handicap class 1 may also play 9 holes EDS and 9 hole HCP effective competitions
  • There are no restrictions for handicap classes 1 to 6
  • This change was made public by the DGV on June 17th, 2020!

Changed criteria in times of CORONA (only in Germany, PC CADDIE update from 21.5.2020)

  • EDS rounds are allowed for all handicap classes.
  • EDS rounds for HCP class 1 are only allowed over 18 holes.
  • With an EDS round over 18 holes, you can also play in HCP class 1!

PC CADDIE prints an EDS score card for the player, on which the player and counter are entered. To do this, select Handicaps / Print / EDS scorecard:

In this window you can specify the Type of score card , the Course and especially the Player and the Marker, as well as the Number of holes 9 or 18. Note the individual points:

  • Is it the right scorecards layout?
  • Select the course, i.e., a 9-hole course for a 9-hole scorecard! This is important so that the handicap for 9 holes is applicable (similar to the 9 hole tournament).
  • The specifications points are printed by default for players and markers as as specified by „define tee limits“. If you set the tee individually rather than „automatic tee“, the presets from „define tee limits “ are ignored.
  • Name the player
  • Choose the marker
  • Enter a start time (this is especially important for guests, because the HCP is checked at the moment of printing).
  • Here you can already specify if it is to be a 9 holes result or a 18 holes result. When you print the card, PC CADDIE creates directly different entries in the handicap record sheet.
  • An entry is created in the handicap record only if the „Extra Day Score“ is checked; this will allow you to later enter the results.
  • „Generate for player and counter“ ensures that you can print both scorecards one after the other if the player and counter have registered for an EDS!
  • „Electronic scorecard“: read under QeSC (only for Germany)

HINT: There is no need to create a new entry in case you have filled the wrong number of holes by accident (the course should have the right number of holes - 9 or 18 holes). You can correct this directly in the record sheet, where you can specify, for example, that this is a 9 holes EDS. This is further explained in the Result input page.

EDS verify function

and

As soon as all the fields are filled in properly, click on Print. PC CADDIE automatically verifies the system requirements for the extra day score and displays it. In Germany, anyone that has reached an EGA handicap (up to HCP 54) can be a marker; in Switzerland, the marker must have an EGA handicap class from 1 to 5 (up to HCP 36) - the PC CADDIE version used in Switzerland issues the corresponding warning!

Make sure that both points are marked with „OK“. You should cancel the process if one of them is not marked with „OK“.

HINT: A player with 4.5 handicap cannot improve his handicap by playing an EDS round, but he can worsen it. The EDS round is counted as a result and can have a positive effect on tournaments in which the announcement stipulates a certain number of rounds played.

If a player has already played a 9-hole EDS on the same day, you will receive the following message when printing a second 9-hole EDS:

If everything is OK, print the scorecard. The entry in the master sheet for the result input is thus also generated.

Warning for foreign home club

If you want to print an EDS scorecard for a player with a foreign home club, you will receive the following message.
In Germany, EDS results from abroad, when sent over the intranet, are automatically set to „not handicap effective“.
In Switzerland, EDS results from abroad, when sent over the intranet, are automatically set to „not handicap effective“.



Enter the EDS result



Please see Enter EDS results for detailed instructions on entering EDS results.

When printing an EDS scorecard, PC CADDIE automatically creates an entry in the member's master sheet or in the guest's handicap protocol. You can enter the result here. If you made the entry by mistake, you can also cancel this entry by pressing the „Cancel“ button on the right of the window. For a guest, however, this has no effect if the result has already been entered and sent. You have to upload a changed result to the intranet in order to cancel the faulty entry.

Double-click on the EDS entry and register the played score using the Enter score hole by hole and calculate.

Confirm with Ok and enter the results. For more details please refer to the chapter register_extra_day_score_results.

This entry has no influence on the handicap until the day of play. Even on the day of play itself, there will be no change of handicap as long as the scores of the EDS round have not been recorded. (So you can print, for example, the EDS scorecard with the appropriate registration 2 days in advance). But once the day of play has passed and no results have been recorded (24 hours after the tee-time, this EDS round will automatically be valuated as „No Return“ by PC CADDIE. The handicap of players is raised according to the handicap system.

EDS rounds - result types

You can also select the types of results at the EDS rounds. Thus the EDS rounds cannot modify the handicap.

Several EDS on the same day

If EDS is not allowed (see allowed combinations) you will receive the following warning message (as of 2016):

To enter more than one EDS round for the same player in the handicap record sheet on the same day, it is necessary to give in the teetimes early and late. This is only possibility to find both entries in the handicap record sheet on the same day (considering the combination of the two EDS rounds is permitted.)

Wrong EDS printed

If, for example, you printed a 9-holes EDS scorecard instead of an 18-holes one, you don't have to cancel the entry in the master record. Instead, simply print out a new, correct, EDS scorecard with the same time-stamp. The first entry will be overwritten in the master sheet!
