What clubs should do with their offers is to restrict them to non voting , who cares, and social golf with no county card. And I would apply to all reduced fees. If you want full benefits then pay full price
£5 a round was pretty generous compared to the full rate. May have cost them full members, ie why pay full rate. Ah well......Just looked into my last club about rejoining at this time of the year....with a reduction in fees of course since this is swamp time of the year (I really need a field to practice on). It looks like the deal they have had for years (currently £850+ £5 a round) is going to be phased out and go to a straight full membership fee.....guess it wasn't paying off at this time.
My FiL's club, my first club, used to be Jan 1st. This year they have finally changed to 31st March / 1st April, as per pretty much every other club in the area. Trying to get fees out of people in January was always crackers, where is the enthusiasm for golf at that point?Subs should be due the Monday after the Masters finishes.
Not January when we’re freezing our nuts off.

I thought most clubs did do their renewals in April/May sort of time. Yours might be in the minority. As you say, makes sense to do it when people are eager to get out and play.Subs should be due the Monday after the Masters finishes.
