The concept for the Master's King of the Beach Open Handicapped Divison was developed
in order to get the numerous older players, who rarely, if ever, play in tournaments,
out to compete. Since there is a wide age range of players 36 and older, an age based
handicap points system was developed. The idea for that came from USAV, where a handicap
is awarded to a team when it competes in a younger division.
