Yes you can. Golf is a wonderful game and we all know that you have to start somewhere. Every single member we have was once in your shoes and everyone is at a different level so no need to feel intimidated. If you are a beginner our friendly resident club Professional Jordan is on hand to offer golf lessons and this is a recommended way of learning the game properly and the quickest way of going from beginner to intermediate.

Please note that the fee cannot be pro-rated, regardless of the time of joining.

At the present time we have waived the joining fee however depending on the membership level and demand this joining fee can be re-introduced at any time. This obviously does not apply if you have already joined or are in the process of joining.

Once you have paid a full annual membership all new Junior members are required to complete an induction program, which includes five golf lessons. One of these lessons is a practical session on the course, covering:

• Course etiquette

• General golf rules

• Health and safety guidelines

This induction package is offered at a discounted rate of £100 and is designed to ensure you gain the maximum enjoyment, knowledge, and confidence from your membership, while staying safe on the course.

The concept of handicap in golf is designed to level the playing field. The golf handicap system provides a way for any two players to have a fair match. Simply put, a golf handicap measures how good you are at the game. Based on recent scores, your handicap will be a number between 0 and 36. A player with a zero handicap is often referred to as a scratch golfer.It is possible to have a handicap lower than zero – this is called a “plus” handicap.

Once you have a golf handicap, using it is fairly simple. If you want to play a match against your buddy, the golf handicap system will tell you how to make it fair to both players.For example: If you are a 12 handicap and your competitor is a 20 handicap, you should give them 8 strokes to make the match fair.

You will need to submit 4 full 18 hole rounds of golf on a marked score card and then once this done we will allocate you an official club handicap. This handicap will then fluctuate depending on future scores.

Once again, we all start somewhere when it comes to golf and this includes the golf rules, local club rules and the course etiquette. You will learn all of this in your Junior membership induction. We have also created a page on this website which can be found on the link here - CLUB RULES. This is a starter page and just outlines the course etiquette along with some very basic rules to make you feel safe and comfortable on the golf course. Also, we will hold some Monday night meetings for new members where we can show a brief presentation on etiquette and rules as well as answer some questions.

Joining a new golf club can be nerve-wracking, but we have tips that will help you settle in. If you are thinking about, or in the process of joining Brynhill Golf Club, or have recently done just that, you may worry about how you might fit in and feel part of it.. It's not just first time members that get this feeling, it's common for everyone, even those of us who have been members at three or four different clubs in our lifetimes. So don't put off joining us for another year, instead read our top 10 tips on how to settle in to your new surroundings here

Also we have now introduced a “GOLF MATES” WhattsApp group where you can arrange games with other new members and also ask questions. If you join as a new member we also offer 1-to-1 introduction meetings where our Membership Liaison Person can show you around and make some introductions as well as go through what you need to know as a new member.

Once you are accepted as a member of Brynhill Golf Club you will either be given an official handicap carried over from a previous club or if you are new to golf you will need to submit 4 cards in a general play round to gain an official handicap. Once you have your official handicap you are then eligible to play in club competitions.

Junior membership is free for the 1st year if the junior member is an immediate family member of an existing adult member. So for example as an adult member you son, daughter, grandson, grand-daughter can join for free in the 1st year.

As a Junior member you are not permitted to sign in visitors at a discounted rate. Any visitor that a junior member does sign in will need to have a CHD number and be an exiting member of another golf club
