The Peninsula Social Golf Club, located in North Brisbane's Moreton Bay Region, is a welcoming and inclusive sports club catering to golf enthusiasts of all skill levels. Originally established over 50 years ago as the 'Belvedere Hotel Social Club,' the club offers its members the opportunity to play at various golf courses across South East Queensland.
The club meets on Sunday mornings, with tee times ranging from 6am to 8am. The emphasis is on maintaining a social atmosphere, with different formats and competitions that allow members to mingle and interact with fellow players. To ensure fair competition, all members receive a social club handicap, which is meticulously maintained by the Club Captain.
Affordability is a priority for the Peninsula Social Golf Club, and with the support of generous sponsors and fundraising efforts, playing a round of golf with the club can cost as little as $40. 00. The club has embraced technology, allowing members to book golf rounds online, view current handicaps, participate in forums, and communicate through email and social media platforms such as the PSGC Facebook page.
Although not the largest social club in Brisbane, the Peninsula Social Golf Club prides itself on being the friendliest. The club boasts a growing female membership and warmly welcomes potential new members. The club's calendar provides a comprehensive list of courses and dates for the entire season. Additionally, an annual Weekend Trip is organised, allowing members to bring along their partners and children for a fun-filled golfing experience.
The Annual Dinner and Trophy Night celebrate the achievements of the club's best-performing players throughout the year.
The Peninsula Social Golf Club also offers a reciprocal golf membership with SOS Golf Group in Western Australia. This enables members to enjoy full membership benefits, including the chance to win weekly prizes, when visiting Perth and participating in the SOS Golf Group's weekly competition.
Joining the Peninsula Social Golf Club is a straightforward and affordable process. Membership is open to golfers of all ages and abilities, and an AGU handicap is not required to play. The 2022 membership fee is $80. 00, which includes the nomination fee and membership until the end of December.
Existing members can renew their membership for $40. 00. To become a member, prospective players can contact the club's secretary or a committee member for an application form.
As a social club, the Peninsula Social Golf Club values the opportunity for its members to play golf at other clubs. Reciprocal club membership agreements are in place, including one with SOS Golf Group in Western Australia.
