Submitting an Application

Membership Forms can be obtained from the clubhouse bar or printed from the link below.

Membership Form is available here

Applicants should fill out a membership application form and send it, along with a cheque for the relevant fees, to the club or hand it in over the bar in an envelope marked "ATTN: Membership Secretary".

Applicants should have a "Proposer" and a "Seconder" both of which should be full adult members (i.e. not Students or Juniors). Submitted applications are put on the Club Notice Board for a period of up to 31 days (until the next scheduled meeting of the Executive Committee), during which time, any objections can be made by the general membership (though this is a rare occurence!).

Any objections received in writing will be discussed and the application voted on at the Committee Meeting. A majority vote in favour, and the applicant will be instated as a member of the club in the applicable category.

In the event that an applicant is new to the area, doesn't know any other members and hence has no one to propose or second them, a meeting will be set up for the applicant to meet members of the Executive Committee at the clubhouse for a "get to know you" chat and a drink.

For the first year of membership only, a joining fee is to be paid in addition to the relevant subscription for the class of membership. Junior and Student members are exempt from paying a joining fee1.

1The Joining Fee for Students and Juniors becomes payable when they achieve full membership.
