GOLD COAST'S NO.1

“One of the best championship
Links courses you’ll play”
-Peter Senior
Welcome to Links Hope Island We are delighted you are considering making Links your home Club. You will find included in our brochure the information you will need to maximise your enjoyment of the Club and it’s facilities. Since opening in March 1993, the golf course at Hope Island has consistently ranked in Australia’s top ten resort courses. Host to the 1997 Johnnie Walker Classic and Qantas Legends Golf Classic, the course is both nationally and internationally renowned. Designed by five times British Open Champion, Peter Thomson and partner, Mike Wolveridge, it is rated by Australian golfing legend, Peter Senior, as “one of the best championship Links courses you will play”. An iconic course, it remains the centrepiece of Hope Island Resort located on the north shore of the Gold Coast, just 25 minutes from Surfers Paradise and 45 minutes from the Brisbane CBD. The layout is the centrepiece to the 360 ha Hope Island Resort community and the par 71 course measures approximately 6,300 metres off the championship tees. Careful strategic thinking must be employed around the natural and man made hazards and 128 challenging pot style bunkers. Other facilities include a concierge bag drop and electric carts further enhance your golfing experience. While an intangible asset in one sense, a primary point of difference with Links Hope Island is the atmosphere of friendship and sportsmanship that prevails. Relatively young as a club by some standards, it’s comparative youth has encouraged a progressive attitude resulting in the absence of outmoded attitudes and a warm camaraderie between members, guests and staff.

Melissa Campbell FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS If I become injured, can I apply for a Medical Extension? Medical extensions will be considered on a case by case basis and may be granted where the Member is prevented from playing golf for a minimum of 3 months. All requests are to be made to the General Manager in writing and must be accompanied by a medical certificate. Restrospective requests will not be granted. Can Members bring Guests to play? Yes, all Members are welcome to invite guests to play with them. Guests are able to play 7 days a week, subject to availability. During competition times (Tuesday and Thursday mornings) a competition fee will be applicable in addition to the appropriate green fee. On Saturdays, Members can invite guests to play in the morning if there are vacancies 48 hours in advance or in afternoon from the 10th tee. Is there a joining fee? A once off non-refundable joining fee will apply to some categories of membership for members joining after July 2021. Terms and conditions apply. What options are there for paying my Membership? Memberships can be paid in full in advance using cash, cheque, credit card or direct deposit. A monthly direct debit can be arranged with payment deducted from your account on the 20th of the month in advance. Quarterly and Bi-annual payments are also available upon application. Fees apply for payments made via direct debit. How can I join and how long does the approval process take? Prospective Members must complete a membership application form prior to joining. Once your application has been approved and payment is made, new members can start playing (this usually takes up to 2 business days). Members will also be required to attend an induction prior to play. Can I change my Membership category during the year? Members can upgrade their membership category, subject to availability, and will be required to pay the difference in applicable subscription fees. Similarly, a Member can reduce their Membership category at any time but no refunds will be made.

As a 5 Day Member, can I play in Honour Board events?
For 5 Day Members an additional fee will make them eligible to play in the Club Championships.
However, 5 Day Members are ineligible for other Honour Board events. A 5 Day Player of the Month
competition is held on the 1st Tuesday of the month, however these are not classified as listed Honour
Board events.
Can 5 Day Members use the Club’s facilities at times other than the days of the
Membership?
Yes, all 5 Day are welcome to the Clubhouse 7 days a week. 5 Day Members are also permitted to play on
Friday and Saturday subject to the appropriate green fee (excluding Saturday morning), for a maximum of
ten times per year at the Member’s Guest fee and after this at the unaccompanied Guest rate.
Are House Accounts available for Members?
Links Members enjoy the convenience of a monthly account for use in the Golf Shop. Accounts are sent at
the start of the month and direct debited from your bank account on the 20th of the month after.
Elements85 will also provide house account facility. Credit is subject to Elements85 conditions.
What reciprocal arrangements are there for Links Members?
Links Members enjoy extensive access to a broad selection of reciprocal golf courses, including our sister
course, Noosa Springs. Links has private arrangements with a number of clubs in Australia. Please ask at
reception for details.
What is a subscription year and is there a contract for golf Membership?
Our Membership year runs from 1st July – 30th June. By joining as a Member you will be entering into an
agreement that concludes on 30th June each year. Annual subscription fees are charged on a pro-rata
basis when joining after the start of the Membership year. Extensions or pauses in Membership for travel
or other reasons, outside of an approved medical condition that prevents play, will not be considered.
For every year you continue your Membership, you will essentially be entering a periodic access
agreement that ends on the 30th June the following year.
