Members should be aware that a reciprocal arrangement of Associate Membership now exists for a trial period (until the end of this year) with Abbeydale, Dore & Totley and Lees Hall, enabling members of each club to play the other courses by prior arrangement at reduced green fees (50%).  Members must call the club they wish to play in advance (access may be limited) and must produce a handicap certificate to prove membership.
