Important Announcement – Golf Australia Approval of Self-Score Submission method.

For the past two years MiClub and Golf Australia have been exploring with The R&A, the permanent adoption of “self-scoring” for competition scores. During the COVID period, millions of competition scores were submitted using this method.

MiClub has now received advice from Golf Australia, further to Golf Australia consulting The R&A, that the MiScore app’s self-scoring method is permissible under the Rules of Golf, effective immediately.

Golf Australia has advised that it will treat the MiScore app self-score submission configuration selected by the club to be its official record of the verification requirements for scores submitted via the MiScore app in club competitions.

This will be well received by the many clubs and members whom have expressed their preference to return to the self-scoring method for the significant benefits it delivers.

Overview and benefits of Self Scoring

MiClub will be working with clubs to re-activate the self-scoring method in conjunction with a new hole by hole score comparison feature in mid-July. Please watch communications from your own club for further details.

The new hole by hole score comparison feature validates the individual hole scores for both player and partner prior to signatures and score submission.

Hole by Hole Score Comparison Process

Please note, the adoption of the self-scoring method is at the discretion of each individual club’s committee.  Clubs will communicate to their members more details shortly.
