NEW MEMBERSHIP CATEGORIES FOR 2012/13 SEASON

Further to our last newsletter two weeks ago where we announced a new ‘Intermediate’ membership for youths aged 18 to 21, we’re delighted to reveal an amendment to our former ‘Junior Oaks’ category and an end to speculation about the now defunct ‘Silver Card’ package.

By combining the former ‘Practice’ membership with some of the privileges offered to Silver Card customers, we have created a new low-cost membership package for occasional players who may also wish to frequent the Academy’s practice facilities. The new ‘Academy’ subscription comprises the following benefits at an excellent £149 per annum (no joining fee):

• Full access to indoor/outdoor practice facilities with range balls/tuition at members’ prices 
• An official handicap (if required) 
• The chance to play in mid-week and Sunday club competitions (excluding majors) 

NB Academy members are not permitted to play competitively OR socially on Saturdays or Bank Holidays – full green fees are payable at all other times according to the advertised rate (those wishing to play on Saturdays must upgrade to at least ‘Gold Card’ membership). Furthermore, Academy members may NOT sign guests in at the advertised members’ guest rates – again, full green fees will apply.

This membership category offers tremendous benefit to anyone using the range or tuition facilities on a frequent basis – or where occasional competition golf is desirable. In short, it’s definitively the cheapest form of adult membership at Leeds Golf Centre and will no doubt prove extremely popular!

In addition, we have revised and renamed the former ‘Junior Oaks’ category. Now known as ‘Tiger Cubs’ membership, in line with the junior section’s group of the same name, it is hoped this initiative will encourage yet further participation at grass roots level and consolidate Leeds Golf Centre’s position at the forefront of the region’s junior golf scene.

The same playing rights as previous will apply but the category age limit has been reduced to 14 as at 1 April – any juniors aged 15 and above at 1 April will now need ‘full’ junior membership in order to remain as active members.
