Junior & Intermediate Membership
Established in 1927, Glenelg Golf Club is now recognised as one of the leaders in Australian golf. With a progressive and proactive approach, we continue to operate as one of Australia’s premier golfing facilities, now ranked inside Australia’s top 40 golf courses.
The Club offers outstanding membership privileges and opportunities, including a world class golf course, modern Clubhouse with extensive bar and bistro facilities and a challenging golf program for players of all levels.
Most importantly, we aim to provide a Club environment with a warm, welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
Junior Development
A key component of every junior membership at Glenelg
We are very proud of our investment in junior golf.
Glenelg Golf Club places great importance on junior golf and this is reflected in the Club’s junior membership structures and the development programs associated with them, which provide a pathway to help juniors to achieve their golfing goals.
Our elite team of nationally recognised and accredited coaching professionals coordinate programs in conjunction with the Club’s Junior Golf sub-committee. All Pro Shop staff are available to junior Members for coaching and advice.
The development of good golfers is a key aim of the program, however there is also a very strong belief that golf should be a fun and enjoyable pastime. The programs in place encourage all juniors, regardless of their ability, to learn, enjoy and respect all that golf club membership has to offer at Glenelg, in a safe, supervised and healthy environment.
Skills For Life
Glenelg Golf Club has created a progressive junior golf program, placing an emphasis on developing life skills as well as the important golfing components.
Golf is a highly social sport and is something you or your children can enjoy at any age or skill level.
Membership at Glenelg is a lifestyle investment. Junior Members have the opportunity to be introduced to the traditions of the game and the etiquette upheld at a private golf club, while experiencing the modern club benefits available; and all in a non-threatening, relaxed environment.
Our membership and programs will prepare all junior golfers for playing golf at any club on a local, national or international level, both now and in the future.
Junior Tiger Clinics
The Junior Tigers Golf Program provides a pathway for young golfers from Beginner to Junior membership through clinics and time on-course. The structured six-level program applies the motto “A Motor Skill, A Rule & An Etiquette” and each session completed will involve these three areas.
Junior clinics run during school terms and in school holidays, and you don’t have to be a junior Member to take part.

Glenelg Golf Club Foundation
The Glenelg Golf Club Foundation was established in 2002 to facilitate the funding of key projects through donations from Members and supporters.
One of the Foundation’s key projects involves the ongoing funding of the Club’s Junior Golf & Elite Player Development Programs. The Foundation believes this is fundamental to the future of the Club and the game of golf.
Activities receiving financial support through the Foundation include:
junior clinics
• entry fees & various expenses to compete in local, state & national junior events
• various junior golf trips to country & interstate locations
• individual & elite level coaching for junior Members
To date, the Foundation has raised over $290,000, of which over $140,000 has been spent on funding the Club’s Junior Development Program.
Since 2002, well over 170 junior Members of the Club have received some financial assistance or have been involved in some way in junior development program activities. Many of these juniors have remained Members of the Club to this day. Glenelg’s reputation as a leader in junior development has been established thanks to the support of the Foundation and the generous donations given by Members and supporters
Membership Pathway
To help in promoting junior golf, Entrance Fees for Junior and Intermediate categories are substantially discounted from the Entrance Fee paid by adult Members. Importantly, there will be no additional Entrance Fee for Junior Members, should they progress into Intermediate, then Provisional membership. Junior & Intermediate Members automatically progress into new categories based on their age as at 1 April each year. At the age of 30, Members will progress into a Provisional or Full membership category..
