It is known that, particularly in England, clubs are steeped in tradition. But in some cases, that tradition has traction in the modern world, a little reluctantly.
Sexist
Some believe that golf clubs can be exclusive and despicable, but it comes as a surprise to many Americans that they can be sexist. A club in north Dublin, Ireland, had his license suspended for drink refusal to admit women as members.
Losing Out
It seems crazy that in the United Kingdom, where they even had a woman Prime Minister - Margaret Thatcher - that injustice still exists. It is old players believe that women should not be allowed in men than golf clubs. And refused the game by prohibiting women are losing benefits and even the economic benefits of the networking opportunities that membership.
Harmful
Meanwhile, another of British golf clubs controversial in Kent told the men that golf clubs should always be able to host top level tournaments such as the Open Championship. This negative publicity can only harm the club in question, and even detrimental to the sport himself.
Golf clubs
Since 2007, the golf clubs which ban women from their bar or limit the time they can play the game will be in breach of Community law. These practices are prohibited by discrimination based on sex of a new directive, which prohibits discrimination in the State of goods and services, including golf clubs.
Equal Opportunities
A British woman, Clare Oliver, a petition to complain about the law that women have unequal treatment or play in tournaments to stand for election to committees.
Organizations such as the English Ladies Golf Association believe it is time that women have equal opportunities in the game and all the golf clubs. This discrimination, access is denied on the stand is considered ridiculous to many young women golfers of the younger generations who are used to ensure equal opportunities in their daily lives.
Single Sex
Despite the EU have until December 2007 to lay down the law, only the sex clubs are still allowed. For the Prohibition of golf clubs of the same sex would be seen as an affront to freedom of expression.
Good luck
Many women golfers to celebrate the new legislation, and we hope that sexism in the game will soon be a thing of the past.
