Membership application - Proposer/Seconder

Thank you for volunteering to be a Proposer or Seconder. As you know at Brocton Hall, we want all of our members to receive a good experience when joining the club and having a Proposer and Seconder ensures that this happens. 

The role is not onerous; it just requires some time and enthusiasm (the time commitment will vary according to the experience of the new member). 

The purpose of a Proposer and Seconder is:

• to ensure that a new member feels welcome and valued
• to ensure that a new member is integrated into the club as quickly as possible
• to aid with the retention of new members

The role of a Proposer and Seconder is to:

• provide a point of contact and a friendly face to a new member. Hence, he/she will know the name and contact details of at least one person at the club
• get to know the new member, understand what they want from the club and help to facilitate this
• introduce the member to the geography of the club and any procedures that he/she needs to know e.g. how to enter a competition
• ensure that the member is aware of the methods of communication used within the club
• help fix up games both with him/herself and other members
• aid with matters of etiquette, basic rules and filling in of cards if the member is new to golf 
• introduce the member to the professional
• encourage him/her to participate in the social life of the club at whatever level the member would like
• when appropriate, ask for feedback regarding their experience and communicate this back to Membership and Marketing
