I'd email them out of courtesy but not sure what/if the correct etiquette would be. Not planning to test it soon
I left my old club in June. That was when my membership expired. I didn't notify the club in any way I just didn't renew for the year.
To be honest I treated it just like a phone contract or sky subscription. Golf clubs are in business they are not my buddy's. Don't get me wrong I had a laugh with people there & stI'll go back for the odd round
If I was asked about extending my membership I would have politely declined for my own reasons but I do not have to explain myself.
From a lot of posts it seems a lot of people feel they have to explain to clubs their reasons
whilst I understand you might not want to give a reason for leaving it certainly help the club if they knew the reasons, if you was unhappy with it, too expensive, quality if the course, it all helps feedback for the club.I left my old club in June.

Where are you of to Kenny ? , Patrick i think it would be just common courtesy to send a wee email saying you weren't rejoining.
Joined Mach Dunes Steve, go down every fortnight. I play a lot of away golf so was playing Glenbervie less and less each year meaning it was no longer value for money.
That's a good result.
Brave move.
Welcome on the Ayrshire links anytime Kenny. Catch you Sunday.
It is in a way Crawford but at £245 a year against £1000 that leaves me £755 to play opens, guest fees and paying as visitor. Will give it a year see how it pans out. I also resigned from my job starting a new one 19th Feb which will involve travelling north of the A66 and all of Scotland so I will get very little mid week golf in.
How much are you going to spend on Fuel to get to Campbelttown?
Think the letter might be coming from the club to you.:mmm:Word of mouth for the one I left, didn't bother with a letter explaining; after an EGM and over 90 others walking at the same time, if they couldn't work it out themselves a letter wouldn't have helped.
Were I to leave my current club (which I have absolutely no intention of doing) I would write to explain why and to thank them for the times I've enjoyed there. I think to some degree the way the club treats you will, rightly or wrongly, affect the way you leave.

I told them I wasn’t going to rejoin, which seems the polite thing to do.
Rules and manners; comply with both and move on. Never know what's round the corner!
