Most clubs have these common types:
- Full Member: Adult members with full club privileges
- Junior Member: Under-18 members
- Social Member: Non-playing members

Sports-Specific Memberships
For multi-sport clubs:
- Create a base membership type
- Add sport-specific add-ons
- Members select which sports they play
- Billing is calculated accordingly
Example:
- Base club membership: R1,000
- Golf add-on: R2,000
- Tennis add-on: R500
- Squash add-on: R400
Best Practices
- Keep membership types simple and clear
- Use consistent naming conventions
- Document what each type includes
- Review and update annually
- Archive rather than delete old types
