Medical Flag The medical flag program assists golfers who are unable to walk to the ball on days when the fairways are closed to cart traffic. A doctor’s authorization or handicap vehicle parking permit is required to purchase a medical flag, which must be renewed each year. The physician should state if the disability is permanent. If it is, the authorization will not need to be renewed each year. If the disability is temporary, the nature of the disability must be stated and authorization must be obtained each year. Super Senior property owners who purchase a medical flag (80 years of age or older) are automatically renewed each year. |
The POA provides for the issuance of a rain check to a player when inclement weather that did not exist at the start of play causes discontinuance of play. Rain checks are also provided if the POA management closes the golf course. Rain checks will not be issued for other reasons.
An 18-hole rain check will be issued when play is stopped before five holes are completed. An 9-hole rain check will be issued when play is stopped before nine holes are completed. If a golfer has begun play on the tenth hole, no rain check will be issued. Also, no rain check will be issued for twilight play. |

What is a USGA HANDICAP Index? A handicap index is the USGA’s service mark used to indicate a measurement of a player’s potential ability on a course of standard playing difficulty. It is expressed as a number taken to one decimal place and is used for conversion to a course handicap. Handicap indexes are revised every 28 days. Do I need a handicap index? Maybe. If you plan to play competitive golf, whether in a league, tournament, or competition between friends, you will need a handicap index. How do I sign up for a handicap index? A GHIN number will be assigned after the registration and fee are received. Registration forms are available at any golf shop and the POA Administration Building. How do I post scores ? Scores can be posted from any POA golf shop or via the Internet at www.ghin.com. To post a score from a home computer, participants will enter their GHIN number, and the slope and yardage of the course played to post a score. The property owner’s member ID number is used when posting scores from the golf shop. The USGA requires 10 posted scores before a handicap index is calculated. What if I post a score incorrectly? Each golf shop has a form available for corrections located next to their GHIN terminal. Can a GHIN number be transferred? Yes. If a current USGA GHIN number has been issued from another club, it can be transferred to Hot Springs Village. |

Each property owner and their dependent are issued a photo identification card identifying them as property owners. Both annual and daily fees are available for property owners. Discount Property Owner Rates Property owners who confirm they are 80 years of age or older are called Super Seniors and may purchase an annual greens fee card for ½ the property owner rate, excluding surcharges, or pay half the daily member greens fee rate excluding surcharges, when playing golf. Super senior property owners play with no greens fee at Coronado Golf Course on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Cart and surcharge fees are charged. To receive these benefits, the property owners’ card must be marked Super Senior at the POA Administration Office. Property owners who are 90 years of age and older receive free greens fees and use of all recreation amenities free of charge excluding applicable surcharges. The Property Owners card must be marked Roaring 90’s at the POA Administration Office to receive this special rate.
Family Members - Property owners may complete a form and pay an annual fee to obtain a photo ID card for their eligible family members. This card qualifies the family member for family rates when playing golf.
