SURREY CLUB CUTS MEMBERSHIP COSTS

Tandridge GC in Oxted has reduced its academy membership fee by nearly 40%, from £750 to £475, as it looks to encourage more people – particularly ladies and girls – to take up the game.

Club secretary Andrew Tanner said: “We’ve never actively promoted academy membership here as an entry point to the sport in the local community but that is changing – and it is a change that many of us feel is long overdue. The fee should act as an incentive for beginners to take advantage of the excellent facilities we have on offer, not a barrier.”

Academy membership entitles the individual to ten individual range lessons of 40 minutes each, six one-hour group lessons, and unlimited free use of the driving range – with balls – for the duration of the membership.
