Esteemed Members

The clubhouse opening became an even more noteworthy occasion as both Mr. Perry and former Governor Thomas Russell (retired from Colonial Government Service, and presently the Cayman Islands' official representative in Britain) were invited and honored the club by becoming its first Honorary members.

Although life membership was introduced and approved at a general meeting of members held May 1, 19080, it was not until September of that year that the first applications were received and approved; Barton and Elaine Kirkconnell became the club's first life members, and this class of membership now totals 9. As at January 31, 1983, overall membership increased in the past year from 217 to 280, and junior players from 86 to 98.
