Why should you join?

You’re looking for a group of high-character individuals from diverse backgrounds who are golf obsessed, you want opportunities to play one-of-a-kind golf experiences, you are a grateful and humble guest at desirable private & public courses, and you want to see a new kind of club emerge & succeed in our current American golf ecosystem.

Why shouldn’t you join?

You’re only here for golf discounts, you only care about playing top 100 golf courses and checking them off a list, you don’t repair your ball marks or divots, you’re anything like Caddyshack’s Judge Smails, or you generally don’t play well with others.

 FAQs

  • Local Chapters (Atlanta and Chicago) play pre-scheduled tee times at surrounding private, public, and semi-private golf courses. Though we cannot share any of our course partners to protect their privacy, our club carefully curates desirable golf that can only be seen in the private NewClub mobile app.

  • Yes. We are a private club without real estate and recognized by the USGA and PGA of America.

  • Our mission is to continue opening local NewClub Chapters, but we also offer National and International memberships (at very reasonable annual dues) which has all the same access & benefits of membership and a focus on regional meet-ups and golf trips.

  • NewClub charges only annual dues once per year. The amount depends on your membership type (Founding, Honour, or National). There are no other dues required for membership and all tee times, events, and trips are pay as you play.

  • To become a member, you must first complete an online application and provide three character references. Your references must vouch for your character both on and off the golf course. Once your application is complete and your references respond to our inquiry, our membership council will carefully review your full application.

    Once your application is approved, you will receive an invitation to join officially by paying your annual membership dues. Once paid, you will gain access to the community and the NewClub mobile app.

  • The online application will take about 15 minutes to complete and we typically see references respond within a few days. Our membership council reviews applications and sends invitations every week.
