We’re excited to announce the launch of the all-new Emirates Golf Society website, marking a significant update since the original site was built by Tim Collins in 2004. Nearly 21 years on, we've modernised your online experience, enhancing your interaction with society while preserving all the functionality you know and appreciate.
Thank you to everyone who attended the AGM and to those who sent in feedback and ideas. The minutes of the session are shared here:
The key items and changes are shared below:
- Annual Subscription Fee (Subs): This will increase from AED 250 to AED 300. The subscription period will change from 1-Apr - 31-Mar to 1-Sep - 31-Aug (your current subscription will now run until 31-Aug - 5 months free). Renewal fees are due in the month of September.
- Event Registration Priority: Subscription renewals received after the month of September will be subject to a lower registration priority for all sponsored events (below Associate Members). New members signing up after a sponsored event opens for registration will also be subject to this lower priority. Too many members only show up for our premium sponsored events and we must protect the priority of our regular members.
- Event Formats: A more sociable approach will be implemented, with more team events, more shotgun starts, a variety of on-course prizes, and F&B after most events.
Finally, we would like to extend our thanks to all Members and Sponsors who continue to make this Society what it is today. From a Committee perspective, we look forward to continue to enhance and develop the Society in 2023.
All the best
The Committee
