How long must I wait to be a member?
The committee determines the number of candidates it can offer Full, Restricted and Provisional membership in June/July of each year.Due to numerous variable factors that are taken into consideration when determining new member intakes each year, it is not possible to estimate exactly how long a candidate on the waiting list will have to wait before they are offered membership. However, we do know the nomination date of the latest candidates elected to membership in our most recent intake.
2024/25 Membership Intake
The MCC Committee has confirmed the membership intake for the 2024/25 season.The Club proposes to elect to Full membership existing Restricted members nominated on the waiting list from November 1, 1992 to January 31, 1993 inclusive.

Waiting list candidates nominated from February 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007 inclusive will be offered Provisional membership.
