Membership
The Perth club is now in its infancy and those golfers that are wanting a club of great camaraderie, the opportunity to play at various courses throughout the year and to help those less fortunate than ourselves, are urged to look at becoming a member of an organisation that is over 50 years old.
Responsibilities of a Nomad
Membership may be awarded at the discretion of the Executive Committee upon application of a proposer and a seconder both being members for at least one year except in the case of new clubs which have existed for less than two years. Any new proposed member of 18 years of age and over, will play as a visitor in the monthly meetings as a guest of a committee member, who on completion of the game will endorse the application for membership.
On no less than the fourth visit the proposed member shall be inducted into the club. Members are entitled to enter all meetings and annual competitions and are required to observe the Rules and Regulations of any club or course at which they may visit.
• A Member shall play in a minimum of 4 (four) monthly meetings during the Club's playing year. In the event of a Member failing to meet this obligation and at the discretion of the Executive Committee, he may be offered Associate Membership or his membership may be terminated.
