The membership currently is 107 full members with 5 prospective members and will be capped at 120 full members in order to be able to accommodate as many players as possible at each monthly game. This figure will be reviewed regularly as we are able to secure more times at the clubs or members resign and places become available. Applications will still be accepted and placed on a waiting list, however acceptance into the club may take longer than usual.
