INTRODUCTION

The basis of the scheme is that golf clubs (and other participating organisations) will identify a powered wheelchair dealer to supply powered wheelchairs for children from any appropriate manufacturer. It is the dealer's responsibility, after having negotiated the cost of the chair with the manufacturer, to agree the cost with the golf club (or organisation).
This must take into account that the dealers will be required to pay the PAMGS 10% of the invoiced cost of every chair ordered and supplied under the scheme. This is to fund the place(s) granted to the participating golf clubs (or other organisations) in the annual Peter Alliss Masters Golf Tournament.

PROCEDURES

1.        Participating golf clubs (or organisations) identify a dealer, or dealers, with whom they would like to deal. The PAMGS Administration Manager must be advised of the name and address of the dealer(s) concerned.

2.        The PAMGS Administration Manager sends a "PAMGS POWERED WHEELCHAIR SCHEME - APPLICATION TO BECOME A REGISTERED DEALER " (see Appendix) to the dealer (if the dealer has not already joined the scheme).

3.        The dealer(s) will assess the prospective recipients (children) on behalf of the golf club (or organisation). They will advise the type of chair needed and appropriate cost involved.

4.        On a final agreed specification, the golf club (or organisation) orders the chair(s) via the dealer(s).

5.        The dealer negotiates the best deal with the selected manufacturer(s), bearing in mind the need to pay PAMGS 10% of the cost. They then order the chair(s).

6.        The manufacturer(s) supplies the dealer with the chair(s).

7.        PAMGS supplies the golf ball control knobs and appropriate stickers for attachment to the chair(s) by the dealer.

8.        The dealer delivers the chair(s), as and when agreed with the golf club (or organisation).

9.        The dealer invoices the golf club (or organisation) for the full agreed cost of the chair(s).

10.        The dealer sends a copy of the invoice to the PAMGS Administration Manager who passes a copy to the PAMGS Treasurer.

11.        The Treasurer issues a PAMGS invoice to the dealer for 10% of the invoiced cost of each chair.

12.        The golf club (or organisation) pays the dealer(s) invoice(s) in accordance with the agreed terms.

13.        The dealer pays the PAMGS invoice within 30 days.


ELIGIBILITY FOR THE PAMGS ANNUAL GOLF TOURNAMENT
(PAM)

PAMGS will award a place at the next PAM for every £2750 spent on wheelchairs up to the 30th September that year and where a copy of the relative dealers invoice has been passed to the Treasurer or Administration Manager of the Peter Alliss Masters Charity by that date. It follows that places for chairs donated after that date will count towards the following year's PAM. The only exceptions to this will be as follows:

1.        Where funding to cover the value of chairs, to be donated at some time in the future, has actually been paid over to and is held in the books of the Peter Alliss Masters Golfing Society as at 30th September.

2.        Places that will be granted relative to the actual donation of chairs at that year's PAM golf tournament.

Any balance of cash arising that is insufficient to earn a place (or further place), may be carried forward until the following year, at the discretion of the PAMGS Treasurer

UNUTILISED PLACES

1.        Places gained one year but not taken up by clubs may be carried forward until the following year's PAM but thereafter will no longer be considered valid. The same applies to balances of cash which are insufficient to gain a place.

2.        If a club or organisation does not wish the donation of a chair or chairs to count towards a place or places at PAM then PAMGS will credit back 90% of the relative discount received under the terms of the "PAMGS Powered Wheelchair Scheme".
