The CSS mentioned above is determined from the SSS. This corresponds broadly with the length of the course. So the back tees will have a higher SSS. Handicap qualifying competitions are played off any measured course (ie with an official SSS). So he could play off any such tees for handicap purposes.

In fact, to get a first handicap, the committee may take note of scores of any tees at all, even the ladies' !!
