Gui Voucher system Revision

Due to the Covid-19 outbreak; Paper Vouchers were not issued on Weds 18th of March nor for the weekend of Saturday 21st / Sun 22nd of March. All 11 winners on these dates have been topped up on their ClubV1 wallet less the relevant competition fee. On a trial basis all Comp prize winners from June 29th and beyond will have their clubV1 wallet topped up as a replacement to Paper Vouchers.

We hope that members will adopt this new arrangement as a means to a sleeker,safer

 Prize setup.

FAQ:

•  From T Woods:  "What is the purpose of my ClubV1 Wallet"? .. Answer: every time you "sign in" to an Official Club Competition the relevant Comp fee will be deducted from your account.

• From R McIlroy: I've recently won 3 prizes @ €30, can I get a paper GUI voucher for €50 and leave the balance in my account ? .. Answer: As a wise man once said: "Yes We Can" ! (simply text Damian Byrne to convert your Wallet into a voucher, it would be preferable if members choosing this method done this at a minimum 1 month period or longer).

• From Seve: Can I use monies built up in my ClubV1 Wallet to pay off 2021 membership? Answer: Yes

• From P Harrington: How do I top up my Wallet ? Answer: You can leave an envelope with Deborah using paper vouchers you won previously or with Money, clearly stating on the envelope that you wish to Top Up ClubV1 Wallet.

New Tee Time Booking System & Handicap Software

11/06/2020 Update:

The Howdidido App still functions for Tee Time booking, Ger C has updated all the email addresses within the New ClubV1 app which should fix issues members have encountered with matching of email address. If you still cannot use the ClubV1 app, please forward the email address you originally used the register on Howdidido to dublinmountaingolf@gmail.com 

**********

9/06/2020

Over the coming days we will migrate to a New Handicapping software application. This will allow us to comply with the launch of The WHS in November.

Please install the Clubv1 members Hub on your Smartphone / Device a.s.a.p

Below is information from our software provider Clubsystems..

There is no charge whatsoever to use the ClubV1 Members app. When upgrading to ClubV1, HowDidiDo is very much still relevant. Scores and results will still be published through HDiD as well as closed and open competitions. members will be able to download both the club ClubV1 members app and the HDiD app however, please note that both of these apps serve a different purpose. 

Members will be able to check their results and handicaps in the HowDidiDo App. Members will be able to book their tee times through the ClubV1 member's app if the club opts to use booking provided by Club Systems. Members can download these apps free of charge from the respective app stores on their mobile device. There will inevitably be some teething problems we thank you for patience in this regard.

Sporting Ireland Directive means all Competitions Cancelled Until June 29th

The GUI have now been advised by Sporting Ireland to reverse their advice on opening Closed Club Competitions from Monday 8th

All our internal club Competitions are scheduled to return on June 29th unless otherwise directed by the Golfing Union of Ireland

Booking Your Tee Time

We have a GUI/Gov Obligation to run a strict daily timesheet at 14min intervals. Regrettably a handful of members have still arrived to the club unbooked, this puts extra strain on our ability to record who was on the course at a given time. The HSE require us to keep a record of daily time sheets for a 6 week period.... in the event that Contact Tracing needs to be carried out.

Please book on Howdidido app a day in advance or Text 0851648489 if you are having issues with HDID, also text this number if you are unable to play so we can remove your name from the booking sheet.

March 24th Update : Course Closed

You are by now aware that the restrictions on the general public has been increased as of today. In compliance with this - the course will be closed immediately to all members.  Like you, I do hope that this will be for the shortest time possible but we have to be vigilant given how serious this threat is. The ground staff are allowed and will be able to continue the upkeep of the course so that when we return the course will be as we would want it to be.

Brian Cruise has been in touch with the Course (Deborah) and has agreed that this loss in playing time will be offset against the 2021 season. For  instance should it last for 3 months then the 1st payment for the new year will fall April 1st 2021. Any outstanding payments for this year should be made either electronically or by post as soon as possible - details are as follows..

Account Number: 00330881     Bank Sort Code: 990620

Bank ID (BIC):  IPBSIE2D.  IBAN: IE41IPBS99062000330881

Cheques can be posted to Martin Dobey c/o 203 Upper Rathmines Road Dublin 6

I mention this because without funds, the course staff may have to be laid off and the course would fall into a state of disrepair. The committee really appreciates your support in this regard.

I'm sure, you like myself, hope that this is a short term situation but once again we have to hold the health and welfare of our members as the greatest importance.

Please keep yourself and your families safe during the coming weeks - we will get through this!

RegardsGerry CantwellSecretary DMGC
