Joining the Club
Membership of the Kowloon Cricket Club is indeed a privilege and is much sought after. Unfortunately applications for ordinary membership have been frozen for the past three years and no one has been taken off the long waiting list.Avenues open for joining the Club are therefore restricted to:
- Nominees for Corporate Membership.
- Nominations under the Sporting Subscribership scheme.
- Personal nominees of General Committee members, limited to one nomination per member.
- Children of existing members on reaching the age of 23.
Persons who wish to apply for Club membership under one of the above options, must complete an Application for Membership Form, as stipulated in the Articles of Association. Forms may be obtained from the KCC office.For further enquiries please contact the Membership Department at info@kcc.org.hk.
Corporate Membership
Information about Corporate Membership is currently being updated and will be posted here shortly.
Visitors and Guest
Temporary visitors to Hong Kong may apply to use the Club facilities under specific circumstances. Members may also introduce guests to the Club.
Absent Membership
Upon payment of an Absent Members' Fee, Special Voting Members, Ordinary Voting Members and Lady Subscribers who are leaving Hong Kong for a period of three months or more, may apply for an Absent Membership Certificate. This enables a member to suspend their monthly subscription payments, whilst retaining membership of the club.Instructions on how to apply for Absent Membership are contained within the Articles of Association. Absent Members' Fees are set as follows:
- OV,
SV, LS : HK$1,100 (current subscription fee) x 3 months
= HK$3,300
Upon returning to Hong Kong, the member may apply for readmission to the Club.
