The winner will be the player with the most improved average score over the past year. 

Explanation of how your handicap is calculated.

The handicap applied is based on your actual % scores  for the previous 12 months, taken away from 50%

Examples : For a member with a 12 month average of 52.51%, the handicap would be -2.51 and for a member with 46.25% the handicap would be +3.75

Handicaps are recalculated at the beginning of each month . For members who have not played in the previous 12 months , and for visitors , their handicap will be -5.00.

 The handicap score is the sum of the actual % score and the handicap.
