Categories of Membership Available
Juniors - we welcome applications from boys and girls under the age of 18. As a guide, junior golfers have tended to participate fully from around the age of 12 but we will consider applications at an earlier age, subject to vacancies and relative ability.
Scale - Juniors may automatically move to Scale at age 18 but anyone not previously a Junior may join up to age 24. Scale Members in full time education may apply to pay half of the applicable Scale annual subscription. All who join as Scale pay an entrance fee of £250 but this is only due at age 25 and payable in five equal instalments of £50. [New Members between the ages of 25 and 30 will pay half the full entrance fee, ie £625 in five equal instalments of £125. Age levels 31+ will pay the full entrance fee of £1,250 in five equal instalments of £250.]
Nine Hole - Full or Midweek nine hole membership is available to long standing Members who are no longer able to play 18 holes of golf. Eligibility is 20 years membership/75 years of age, or less at the discretion of the Board. Such Members will pay half of the annual subscription applicable to Full and Midweek categories.
Country - Country Membership is available to existing or
new Full or Midweek Members with the following variations:
A) Permanent residence more than 100 miles from DGC and no play in Club competitions - 75% discount to their category of membership subscription.
