Alresford Golf Club was founded in 1890 and remains a traditional ' members'
club , organised and run through the Management Committee , Captains' Committee
and with a full time Secretary / Manager. There are currently approximately
625 playing members; 425 are Men, 110 are Ladies and 90 juniors / intermediates
/ students, mostly in full time education. The club also has around 60
social members drawn from the town who do not play golf but have full use
of the clubhouse facilities.
This is an ideal time to apply for membership of the club as we currently
have a limited number of vacancies in most categories of membership.
Please note that as of July 2006 there is no
availability for new 5 Day members.
Benefits of Membership
Alresford has a wide range of members, with a high proportion coming from
the town and the surrounding villages. However the easy access from the
M3 and A31 have meant that many more newer members come from up to 30 minutes
drive time away from the club.
By joining as a playing member you are entitled to our full range of facilities
as follows;
 |
Unlimited use throughout the year ( subject to 5 or 7 day restriction)
of our highly regarded and well maintained course with newly installed

Membership Categories
Membership is split into several categories; Seven Day , Five Day, Country,
Overseas, Juniors , Intermediates and Students. The Club has many competitions
with regular mid-week and monthly Medals and Stablefords for all category

The club has introduced a new Academy membership category for 2008, aimed at people new to golf and without previous club experience or a handicap. This will be limited to a maximum of 5 people each year. Please ask the Secretary for details.
What is required to become a member ?
Ideally new applicants will have a proposer and seconder from the club,
but this is not essential and if you do not know anyone at the club please
just state as such. We would also like you have a previous club handicap
but once again this is not essential. We may require that a prospective new member plays a round of golf with a Committee member before progressing their application. We would advise complete beginners
to enroll on a course of lessons with our Professionals before joining
. We require any new Juniors to have had lessons with our Professionals
before applying to join.
Every prospective new member will be asked to attend an interview with
the Captain and Secretary where he or she can raise questions they may
have.
