We are a proud provider of the Golf Handicap & Information Network (GHIN). GHIN is an all-inclusive software package developed by the USGA for the purpose of helping clubs, golfers, and golf associations interact and promote the game. Key services of the software package include handicap management, tournament management, web services, and data services.

Golf Handicap Program (GHP)

GHP provides accurate and timely Handicap Indexes for more than 1.6 million golfers. It is the world’s largest handicapping service. Scores are submitted by members at any GHIN club in the nation. The scores are promptly routed to the national server where, through a license with the USGA, Handicap Indexes are calculated and distributed to KCGA members clubs at two-week intervals during the golf season. In addition to a user-friendly interface for golfers, GHP’s powerful management module provides a handicap committee with tools for player maintenance and a custom report writer. The KCGA provides the GHP software, installation, and technical support as part of membership. A small additional fee is charged for each active golfer.

eClubhouse

Clubhouse is a web-based tool to help streamline the organizational and communication processes of most clubs. The password-based micro site allows clubs to create subject matter that is available to the public (unauthenticated users), or to members only. This allows public information about the club to be available to prospective members or guest. All content management is done utilizing WYSIWYG editors, so it is intuitive and keeps the site dynamic. Hence, the administration of the site can be easily managed by anyone. The KCGA provides eClubhouse and technical support as part of the standard handicap fee. Some of the features and options include:

• About Us, My Game (stats, score posting)
• Event Management (tournaments, meetings, or socials)
• Player Maintenance
• Email Broadcasts, Themes (look, feel, colors)
• Photo Albums
• Payment Options (membership fees and/or event fees)
• Accounting

Tournament Pairings Program (TPP)

TPP is a powerful tournament management software. TPP is used in over 5,000 clubs nationally, and more than 100 golf associations including the USGA. TPP manages many functions that typically could only be done manually by a club’s staff. Pairings, flights, scorecards, cart signs, scoring, and posting event reports are all done quickly and easily with TPP. There are also optional components that can enhance a club’s competition. These optional components include:

• TPP Clubhouse Viewer
