FAQ

Futures Canterbury has two hubs in Canterbury providing regular and affordable opportunities for young people and families to learn and play golf in a positive and fun environment. When you join a Futures Canterbury Hub, you get access to play at a collective of golf clubs through a concession card system, with a growing community of young people and families along with regular learn and play sessions and events.

Being a member of the hub gives you access to play at all of the participating clubs in the hub you have joined (i.e. at either North-East clubs or Selwyn clubs, not both) during off-peak times outside of weekly club competitions, within the concession card system.

Note- You will need to contact the club to make a booking in advance. If you wish to play at one of the clubs outside of their set off-peak times, you may have to pay a green fee as determined by the golf club.

All new junior and youth members will receive a concession card in their membership pack, along with anyone renewing their membership.

The card is used to track rounds played at other hub clubs (apart from your selected associated club).
Each time you play at another club in your hub (North-East or Selwyn), a round will be marked off your card with a hole punch by the club's staff.
This makes it easy for you to see how many rounds you have left.

How It Works

Unlimited rounds at your selected associated club (chosen at registration), within the course access times they allow.
Up to 5 rounds at each of the other participating clubs in your hub.

Example: If you join the North-East Hub and select Hagley as your home club, you can play there as often as you like under the course availability times. You’ll also get up to 5 rounds each at Bottle Lake, Rangiora, Waimairi Beach & McLeans Island.

If you have turned 14 during the membership year, when your membership comes up for renewal, you will need to choose one of the following options:

A) Join one of the participating Future Hub clubs as a Primary member and also pay $125 to maintain your Futures Canterbury membership as a secondary member

B) Join any Golf Club directly as a Primary member with no continued Futures Canterbury Hub membership

C) Not join a Golf Club and continue to play Golf as an unaffiliated golfer

Visit our Membership Options page for more information.

Yes, we offer a membership for parents/guardians of current junior members of a hub. The parent/guardian membership includes off-peak playing rights at the participating hub courses when playing with a young person who is a current junior member of the North-East or Selwyn Hub, within the concession card system. The annual membership fee is $250. Please note the parent/guardian membership does not include an Golf NZ membership number.

To encourage family participation, this membership is transferable between parents allowing one parent at any time to play with their child/children. If you would both like to play with your child/children at the same time, two parent/guardian memberships would be required.
