When do I need to pre-nominate a round?
Pre-nominating a round is an important part of the handicapping process. It ensures that people cannot manipulate their handicap to gain an advantage in an upcoming event or tournament, for example.
If you submit a round as part of your first 3 cards for your official handicap, the nominate button will not appear in your Future Golf app, as these are the only rounds that do not need to be pre-nominated. You can click on 'submit scorecard' and directly submit your scorecard.
After receiving your official handicap, all rounds must be pre-nominated at least 24 hours prior to play.
How do I pre-nominate a round?
After logging into the Future Golf app, tap the plus sign icon at the bottom of the page.
Then tap on Nominate Handicap Round.
On the next page, enter your intended play date and search the course where you are planning to play. Then, Submit the Nomination by tapping the red button.
Why am I not seeing the Nominate Handicap Round button in my app?
The nominate a Handicap Round button will not appear for members who have yet to submit their first three scorecards for handicapping.
Members who are trying to submit one of their first three scorecards should click on "submit scorecard" directly. More information about submitting your first scorecards can be found in our first handicap support article.
How do I cancel my nomination?
We understand that things can change. If you won't be able to play your nominated round, be sure to cancel your nomination in the app.
To do so, tap on Social Rounds at the bottom of the screen in the app.
On the next page, swipe left on the pre-nominated round, where you will see a delete icon.
Tap on the delete icon, then tap "Yes, delete the pre-nomination".
