Society of Singapore Golfers

Anyone know what are the benefits like which course have what discounts under the above association? Thanks in advance.

Actually not much disc, they organise monthly games if I remember correctly.
If you need a handicap just need to attend a workshop with them n go for courtesy round.
Hope this helps!

They organize monthly game. Pay if you play. No monthly subscription, only yearly membership fee.

The maintaining of score also cheap right?

Maintenance is cheapest in SG. $90 with membership. However you must join their monthly game quarterly to maintain your hcp. They are quite strict in their hcp maintenance and competitions. You don't see sandbaggers in their monthly medals. In a way, it's a good place for serious golfing and learning.

Nonetheless rate may increase next year due to increase price from SGA.

You will need a "Seconder" (extg SSG member) to be considered for membership too.....

Please read the bye laws.

Must attend handicap workshop before handicap is allowed to be transferred to them. 
$35.
Failure to submit their scorecards WITHIN 3 weeks from the date of play; and/or Failure to participate AT LEAST 1 golf event in every quarter (either Monthly Medal or Annual/Quarterly Tournament) organised by the Society
Failure to comply with the above, the handicap index will be withdrawn or revoked by the Handicap & Rules Committee without any notice. 


Professionally managed IMHO.

Agreed! 
Whether u re so-called high hcper bt had a all-in-one gd game w gd scores during any of their mthly game, the hcp system ll adjust accordingly. 
There re 12 mthly so how many can one escape, IMHO. 

I was a member before I sign p NSRCC... Well run and very professional. The president is a certified USGA Rules official.

You need a club to maintain HCP.. and a place to learn and participate in the competition.. its a great club to join. Note that you need to have a seconder. As for discount, not much.

The president is a gentleman.....on and off course..... hope it helps.

What is a seconder? Sponsor?

When you apply to join, you need 2 existing members to support your application. Need to write their names down on the form.
