Membership

Adult Membership
Adults wishing to apply for membership should complete a proposal form (available in the clubhouse). Any two Members may propose and second an application for membership of a candidate known personally to them, and must support that application by a letter to the Secretary / Manager stating the grounds of their acquaintance, and taking responsibility for their eligibility.

If you do not have a proposer please write an application for membership to the Secretary / Manager outlining your golfing experience.

Following receipt of your proposal form or letter you will be invited to attend an interview with a Membership Panel appointed by the Committee. The Membership Panel has delegated powers to approve applications for membership, but any decision to refuse an application for membership will be confirmed by the full Committee.

The Club is not obliged to give a reason to any unsuccessful applicant.

Once you have been accepted as a member you will receive a copy of the rules, and etiquette handbook, together with the fixtures for the forthcoming year.

Current fees for 2009 are as follows:

Joining fee None
Full Playing Gentlemen £610.00
5 ½ Day Gentlemen £488.00
Full Playing Lady £458.00

Temporary Membership
Once the gentlemen's membership ceiling is reached, in accordance with club rule 3.2 the club will be unable to accept further members until a space becomes available.

The Club can offer a temporary membership enabling the person to play as follows: Monday - Friday - excluding tee reservations Sunday - After 11.30am

If you are offered temporary membership it is expected that you will pay the full fees (pro-rata) once a space becomes available, together with the joining fee. If you do not take the full membership your temporary membership will end.

As a temporary member you will be eligible to play in competitions held on the days on which you are permitted to play.

Temporary membership fees are £30.00 per month paid to the end of the membership year i.e. 30th September.
