The MSGA requires a World Handicap System (WHS) handicap to play in MSGA Tournaments.
If your handicap is with a Golf Club that is a member of the WHS, you may use that handicap.
If you do not have a WHS handicap, the MSGA provides a handicap service as an Associate Member of Blue Golf System known as the MSGA/Blue Golf system.
