Membership FAQ's
You will need to complete an Application Form and lodge this form with the necessary fees at the Jindalee Golf Clubhouse.
Both the nomination fee plus the subscription (pro rata yearly) is payable the day your application form is submitted. The Management Committee will then formally approve your application at their monthly meeting, which is usually held on the third Monday of each month. Once your application form and fees have been submitted to the office, you will be granted temporary membership.
This enables you to use the clubhouse facilities and if you applied for golfing membership you can commence playing social golf as well playing in the competitions provided you have an GA handicap.
Following approval at the Management Committee meeting, the new members are mailed a notification advising their application is formally approved.
The Manager will be happy to help you organise a proposer and seconder.
GolfLink is a national internet database managed and affiliated with Golf Australia (the National Governing Body for Golf Clubs and Members). GolfLink adjusts each person’s handicap after each competition game. Members are allocated a 10 digit personalised number, this number is used to log onto the GolfLink website and view competition rounds.
Visit www.golflink.com.au for further details.
Members obtain a handicap by playing 3 rounds of 18 holes with a person who holds a current GA handicap. Score cards used to obtain a handicap can be social or played during a Club competition.
Your current handicap will be transferred from your old club to Jindalee and a new Jindalee Golf Club number will be allocated. All competition rounds from your previous club will be shown on the GolfLink website and your handicap will remain the same.
