Handicap Certificate Abroad?

As a new member here i love the fact that i can keep a track of a handicap without being a member of a golf club.

My friend and i are going to Portugal in December and are booked to play at Penina on the championship course. It requres us to show a certificate, and i know this may seem a daft question give this site, but has anyone been here and used this certificate from here to play. I just want to make sure it is accepted so i don't get dissapointed when i turn up.

Thanks

I used to run The Golf at Primrose Valley Holiday Park and produced "Membership Cards" which included Hcp for the guys when they went to The Algarve and they were welcomed.

So they should be OK from here, but make sure that Penina are not asking for MEMBERSHIP CERTIFICATES as against Handicap Certificates.

I have stayed and played there a few times over the years. A great hotel and golf course. I have never been asked for a handicap certificate and in this day and age, money is the key, not your ability.
