Our Club May 2014 | Page 20

Becoming a Member of Manly Golf Club Manly Golf Club has always had the reputation as a friendly and welcoming Club. Our members are committed to preserving a culture that is inclusive and convivial rather than ‘clubby’. Staff are relaxed and helpful and our management team and golfing professionals go out of their way to give members and guests the best possible experience every time they visit. Introducing New Members The Club is currently encouraging the introduction of new members. It is normal practice for a prospective new member to be introduced and supported by existing members of the Club. However, from time to time, and always subject to availability, we will make exceptions for prospective members new to the Manly area (for example persons from overseas or interstate) who may not know a current member. Such persons should in the first instance contact the General Manager. 16 www.manlygolf.com.au The Club maintains a membership of 1,400 members, 70% of which are 7-Day Playing (predominantly male) and 5-Day Playing (predominantly female). The Board monitors the membership numbers to balance course access with the needs of members.
