COURSE RATING & MEASURING

Designated as official course raters by the USGA, the WSCGA Rating Committee is comprised of trained volunteers who have attended USGA seminars. They are also authorized to train new candidates for the WSCGA rating team. The Rating Committee measures and rates all new courses in South Carolina for women.
