England Golf

Players can enter social/general play scores via the MyEG app by clicking on the ‘Scorecard’ function at the foot of the dashboard screen and following the instructions. 

Advice would be to whenever possible to enter hole by hole scores during play and have the score attested and submitted promptly after play on the day of play and before leaving the golf club

If the ‘Scorecard’ function is not visible on the app, please go to the app store to download the latest version of the MyEG app.  

Note: you must ensure your attester/marker has the most up-to-date version of the MyEG app (including the score entry icon) to be able to select them as your app scorecard verifier and for them to verify your score.

Also, when submitting a score through the mobile app, there is the option to add scores for playing partners. However, as with paper scorecards, each player must submit their own score separately for it to be recorded against their handicap. Including a playing partner in your round will ensure their name appears first when selecting an attester of your card for submission. If the attester, or anyone else in your playing group, wants to submit their own score, they need to go through the score entry process on their own app.

Please see our step-by-step guide to score entry. 

Please note, the functionality is the same but the branding between the club member app and iGolf app may be different.

1. Open the MyEG app and click ‘Scorecard’ at the foot of the dashboard screen, highlighted yellow below:

Note: ensure your scorecard attester/marker also has the most up-to-date version of the app (including the ‘Scorecard’ icon) in order for them to be selected as your verifier as per step 12.

1. Select ‘Create’:

Note: Previous scorecards will also be displayed under ‘Scorecard History’.

1. Select from the available courses (based on geo location) and tee markers:

If the tee markers available are incorrect you will need to contact the relevant club to update them.

- When submitting a score through the mobile app, there is the option to add scores for playing partners. However, as with paper scorecards, each player must submit their own score separately for it to be recorded against their handicap.

If the attester, or anyone else in your playing group, wants to submit their own score, they need to go through the score entry process on their own app.
