When logged in, you will be able to use the membership section to:
- manage your personal membership details (i.e. change of address, handicap etc.)
- look at the membership database
- have a look at the websites of the clubs where we hold our meetings
Managing your own membership details
Your membership details consist of your login details (your e-mail address and password) and your OTGS personal details (your address, golf handicap etc).
Changing your e-mail address
It is important that you keep your e-mail address correct and up-to-date on our system. This is necessary because you use your e-mail address whenever you log in, and we will occasionally use it to contact you. We will also use it to send you notification of any changes to fixtures which you have signed up to play in. We also need to have your correct e-mail address to assist you if you forget your password and need to change it.
To change your e-mail address:
- Select Membership from the main navigation menu.
- Click on My membership details.
- Click on Change e-mail address.
- You will be presented with a form where you can change your e-mail address.
- Your e-mail address can be listed in the membership database, so that other members can send you an e-mail.
- Your e-mail address will never be made available outside the OTGS - only to other members who have logged in.
- If you do not wish other OTGS members to see your e-mail address, remove the tick in the box that says Display my e-mail address in my membership database profile.
- If there is no tick in the box, your e-mail address will not appear, although OTGS members can still use the website to send you an e-mail.
- Your e-mail address will always be visible to the Hon. Secretary.
- Once you have made your changes as above, click on the Change e-mail button at the bottom.
Changing your password
If you cannot log in because you cannot remember your password, you can change it by following the instructions for What to do if you have forgotten your OTGS password in the Logging in section
If you are already logged in and wish to change your password:
- Select Membership from the main navigation menu.
- Click on My membership details.
- Click on Change password.
- For security reasons you will be asked to enter your current password (the one from which you are changing).
- Enter your new password, and re-type it in the third box to ensure that you typed it correctly.
- Click on the Change password button.
Changing your OTGS personal information (address, handicap etc)
Your OTGS personal information will be displayed in your profile in the membership database. It will only be available to other members of the society, not to the general public.
It is important that you keep it up-to-date, because it is also used by the Hon. Secretary and fixture organisers if they need to contact you.
- Select Membership from the main navigation menu.
- Click on My membership details.
- Click on Change personal information.
- You will be presented with a form that allows you to make changes to all of your personal information that is on the system.
- Once you have made your changes, click on the Save changes button at the bottom.
Your changes will appear in the membership database immediately.
