Reply to "One Course, More Than One Official Name?"

I believe that once the course is named it should retain the name forever. I don't see the point of tampering with the course history to suit the desires of a new sponsor. The course number is the true identification of a course, not its name.

This policy, if adhered to, will send the message that one should be cautious in naming a course.

It always made me wince when, as a measurer or a certifier, I had to include a sponsor name in the race name. I dislike the practice.

We have been asking people to include the course ID in their promotional material for decades. If they do not do so, thus aiding the searcher, why is it our problem?

Don't change course names once they are certified.
