Membership Policy

The Board have introduced 3 new categories taking effect from April 2025.

  • 7 Day Limited
  • Young Adult Limited
  • 18-20 year old Limited

All of these categories have 7 day access however all new members will start in these categories in order to reduce tee time pressure before 9am Saturdays. All of these categories will only have booking rights 4 days prior to the Saturday competition rather than the normal 10 days prior.

They are non- voting categories and once tee time pressure eases- members will be invited to move to the traditional voting categories via committee.

Medway Strategy 

As we looked ahead to the future, it was clear the golf industry in Australia is evolving rapidly, with new technologies, changing demographics, and shifting expectations from members and customers. To stay competitive and ensure that golf remains a vibrant and thriving sport, it is essential that Medway Golf Club is proactively planning for our future.

The Strategic Plan is designed to do that. It aligns with the “Strategy for Australian Golf,” which aims to make golf more accessible, welcoming, and enjoyable for all Australians. At the same time, it addresses the unique needs and challenges facing Medway Golf Club specifically, considering the feedback of members, our culture, and values.

Strategy Summary 

 

Melbourne Water Sewer Project  

The Board has commenced discussions with Melbourne Water as to how the next 18 months will look like in regards to support for the club. The Board will utilize external assistance to ensure the club continues to have best outcome possible due to the impact to the club over many years.

We believe the re-tender process has been completed for  ongoing project start date mid 2025. All the current works completed have no impact on the remainder of the works and progress will continue with the amended outcome tunnelling under the river from winter 2025.

Administration and Systems

As per the Strategy above in 2025 we will be moving to some new systems behind the scenes to improve efficiencies.

Xero Financial will replace MPower financials during the year. Our payroll system will move to Xero Payroll also.

Around July  we will move away from MPower membership system and replace with MiClub’s Mi Membership. Members won’t see  a lot of change- however it’s a major task and for the best of the club moving forward. There will be a supporting Club App which will be much more user friendly for House act tops up etc. We already use Miclubs website, Miscore App, Golf Competition Management software so a total integration will help us and you moving forward.

The systems are cloud based and easier to use and future HR needs will be easier to recruit staff as they are more widely used than the older Mpower system.
