WIGL LEAGUE HANDICAP INFORMATION: All first time players must complete a full nine (9) hole match in order to establish a League handicap. Once a player participates in the league, he / she may not change teams during that season. A first time player’s handicap, once established, cannot go up until he/she has played and turned in four (4) scores. However, his / her handicap can and will go down if he / she shoots a lower score than the one on which his / her handicap was based.
The formula for calculating league handicaps is as follows:
| Player HDCP | Maximum Reportable Score |
| 0 - 4 | Double Bogey |
| 5 - 9 | 7 |
| 10 - 14 | 8 |
| 15 - 19 | 9 |
| 20 or more | 10 |
The best 1 out of the last 2 or 3 scores.
The best 2 out of the last 4 or 5 scores.
The best 3 out of the last 6 or 7 scores.
The best 4 out of the last 8 or 9 scores.
The best 5 out of the last 10 scores.
