Provisional Membership

Introduced in 2015, Provisional membership is the first step in the flow of membership before Restricted, and then Full.

Access to the Members’ Reserve

Provisional members may have limited or no access to parts of the Members’ Reserve on event days when the attendance of Full and Restricted members and their guests is forecast to be high, such as during the AFL Finals Series and on Day 1 of the Boxing Day Test.

Events will be placed in one of three categories according to the expected demand from members and their guests to attend the Reserve, which are communicated at the beginning of each season. These categories determine the level of access that Provisional members will have to the Reserve, including access to reserved seats, dining room tables, visitor tickets and Long Room passes for guests.

Similar to the Restricted membership category, Provisional members are entitled to attend meetings of the Club but are unable to vote, nominate committee or office-bearer candidates, nominate new members or receive privileges at interstate and overseas reciprocal clubs.
