Celebrating Legacy, Elevating Reciprocity
The Centenary is a non-profit organisation designed to help historic golf clubs thrive in the modern era. Many clubs still rely on outdated methods to manage reciprocal agreements. By uniting century-old golf clubs through a streamlined platform, The Centenary not only makes it easier for members to discover and use these agreements, but also gives golf clubs access to a growing network far larger than they could build alone, all while retaining full control. It safeguards the traditions of golf’s oldest clubs, ensuring their legacies continue well into the future.
Our interactive map helps you discover over 1,850 century-old golf clubs throughout the world. Only members of The Centenary can see and use the 'reciprocal only' filter to locate reciprocals & request to play!
If your golf club is over 100 years old, has a good reputation and wants to add signifcant value for their members without all the hassle, then read on! Grow your reciprocal agreements, connect to other historic golf clubs while lowering the administrative burden.
