MEMBERSHIP
In the interests of supporting the wider community and ensuring the greatest possible reach, we do allow non-members to make use of some of our facilities. However, becoming a member of the club means becoming part of a supportive community with full access to some exceptional facilities:
- Seven badminton courts
- Five squash courts
- Fully equipped gym
- Table tennis
- Spin studio
- Boxing classes
- Shower facilities and sauna
A comparison of being a member vs using our facilities as a non-member:
| Facility | Member | Non-member |
|---|---|---|
| Court Reservations | Two weeks in advance | On the day only for courts not already reserved by members |
| Sessions | Able to attend any session | Only some sessions are open to non-members |
| Fees | Lower fees for courts and sessions | Higher fees for courts and sessions |
| Squash Leagues | Open to members | Not open |
| Tournaments | Open | Not open |
| Play for teams | Yes | No |
| Gym Access | Yes | No |
| Car Park | Yes - while using club facilities | No |
| Social | Participate fully in the social life of the club | May use the bar and food service |
In addition, members have voting rights. We are a not-for-profit club with a professional management team, but ultimately controlled by the members through the board and the various committees. Members vote at general meetings for the members of these bodies and on other matters.
If you make more than very occasional use of the club we do encourage you to become a member.
