Website Posting Schedule

This is the first of postings that are intended to better explain the operation of the website and what members can expect and/or gain from it.

The goal of getting tournament information out on the website is to do so in a manner that meets the needs of most of the members while not requiring a full time web administrator.  This schedule is dependent somewhat on the receipt of the relevant information from the source (mainly the city golf course personnel).  Once received the source information has to be checked for accuracy and formatted for posting on the website.  There are additional requirements to provide information to course personnel for their use in setting up the events.

A  listing of the target deadline for posting key informational elements follows:

• Tournament Results: 24 Hours After Receipt Of The Source Material
• Tee Times:  Monday Before The Event
• Handicap Updates: First Day Of The Month
• Emergency Announcements: As Soon As Received
• General Information Topics: As Needed

Another key item is delivery of the latest course handicaps to the course on the Monday preceding the Wednesday signup for the next week event.

These targets are generally met or beat but may sometimes be delayed for problems with the source material or in dire cases a need for personal time by the website volunteers.  Questions on the process or those needing immediate information on the listed topics can contact Paul Redden by email at asga_admin@austinsga.org.

April 3 Results Revision

Flight #5 of the April 3 Individual Net event at Lions Municipal GC has been revised as shown in the graphic below.  The revision was necessary because of errors in the scores for Jim Millan and Larry Smith as reported by the course.

NOTE 1: Joe Noon won the scorecard tie-breaker for 5th place on hole #18.
NOTE 2: A revision was previously made to the results for the March 6 Individual Net event at  Lions Municipal GC.  Updated results are available on the ASGA Status website.

Purpose of the changes is to better facilitate the handicap update schedule (the mix of event formats is essentially unchanged).

The online tournament schedule here now reflects the above changes
