Membership Benefits

Many of our membership benefits are identified below, and the answers to several questions can be found on our FAQ and Club Policies.

In short it’s $100 to join GTGP to play and compete in all events. That includes a USGA handicap account and other GAP benefits. Then play in as many events as you want. There is also an associate membership level for the less frequent golfer. GTGP plays the best public golf courses in the Delaware Valley region.

This is golf that’s fun, competitive, and convenient.

    • All at a low cost. Really.  Saturday morning greens fees have to be covered. Other than that, our costs are insanely low. There are no profits or fees to other organizations baked in.

Finally, our members enjoy benefits as Individual Members of the Golf Association of Philadelphia (GAP). GTGP is a GAP associate club. Your USGA handicap is provided through GAP. You will also be eligible to play in GAP Member Play Days* at private clubs in the area. See www.gapgolf.org for more info.

*GAP has been expanding this program in recent years.  As GAP says, “GAP Member Play Days provide Individual Members of GAP with an opportunity to experience other area golf courses in a relaxed, enjoyable environment.”

2025 Update. Over the past few years GTGP participation at GAP Member Play Days continues to be a growing phenomenon.  There might not have been an event without a GTGP participant.  At more than a few events we had a couple of foursomes competing. And our players did win a few events, by the way. So for both our existing members and potential new members, do consider signing up for these GAP events in 2025!  The format for these events are very similar to our own: low net stroke play, rules of golf in effect, prizes for top finishers. GTGP members have participated in GAP events at the courses below.  This list remains representative of what we expect GAP to offer in 2025.
