4. To edit the player’s information you will select the edit button icon (see below) that pertains to the information you would like to edit. The following information may be edited.

• Name, Gender, Birth Date - Gender is important as score posting is tied to Gender so the available tees will not show up correctly, if the Gender is not correct. Birth Date is also important for billing purposes and entering players in correct age divisions for GAM events and tournaments.

• Member Mailing Address – As a GAM member, each player will be delivered a GAM Course Directory, however there needs to be an address listed and it cannot be the address of the golf course.

• Member Login – This is the player’s login information to the GAM website to post scores, register for tournaments, GAM Golf Days, and access many other benefits of their GAM membership.

• Email Address – In order for a member to receive their Handicap Revision email on the 1st and 15th of the month, they need to have an email address on file.
