Membership
The Lancefield Golf Club currently has membership vacancies in all categories with a minimal joining fee.
The benefits of membership at Lancefield include being able to play or practice at any time without extra fees, gaining a recognised handicap and being eligible for competitive events both within the Club and the Dalhousie District (see COMPETITION), as well as at other venues. A small competition fee applies. Members also benefit from the interaction with other golfers, use of Clubhouse facilities and involvement in a range of SOCIAL ACTIVITIES.
Lancefield offers a pleasant, uncongested course with no hit-off queues or unduly slow play. Many of our members are prepared to travel from Melbourne or nearby towns simply because playing here is such a pleasant experience.
We especially encourage Juniors and Ladies to apply to join. As part of our effort to attract more young people and women to golf, the Club held a number of very successful coaching clinics with professional Brian Twite from Metropolitan Golf Club in February and March 2009 and again in 2010. These were well-attended and several participants subsequently joined the Club. (See our PICTURE GALLERY ARCHIVES). We intend holding further clinics in 2011.
Currently we are holding coaching clinics for young boys and girls on Saturday mornings - these are designed to develop self-confidence as well as basic golfing skills. For more information on junior golf refer to JUNIOR MEMBERS or contact our co-ordinator John Rebbechi on 5429 1918 or jsreb@bigpond.com
| We have recently introduced an exciting new program designed by the Victorian Golf Association for juniors interested in taking up golf. See JUNIOR MEMBERS for more details! |
