Golf clubs: Why you should join a golf club

There are untold benefits of joining a good golf club

Whether you are new to the game or have played it for a number of years, you may be looking to join a golf club. If you are, be sure to do your research thoroughly, so that you join one that is not only easily accessible but also has a good reputation. You may find that you have to go on a waiting list, when you do actually find one, and it may be that other members have to sponsor you, but it will be well worth the wait.

If we're honest, there are golf clubs and there are golf clubs. If you join one of the more prestigious ones, you will obviously pay a higher membership fee, but the privileges and benefits you gain will more than make up for it.

Sense of belonging

One of the reasons a lot of people take up a sport, such as golf, and join a club is to feel part of a group. Socialising is an important part of any sport, not just during the game, but also afterwards in the clubhouse. Joining a golf club is a good idea whether you are a couple or single, because it is a sport that you can either play on your own or with other people. You will inevitably start chatting to other golfers as you go round the course and then you can relax with a drink in the clubhouse after the game. The sense of belonging people share when they are members of a golf club is immense, as they have experiences, situations and people in common.

Exclusivity

Another good reason for joining a golf club with a good reputation is that you will get access to areas and special privileges that normal day players won't get. It's always slightly satisfying knowing that you are allowed to do something that other people are not!

Corporate membership

Corporate memberships to golf clubs offer some great privileges and it also gives you a fantastic opportunity to business network.

Some of the benefits might include:

• Priority for function rooms and the clubroom
• Exclusive access to a particular course
• Advanced tee time booking privileges
• Special social functions
