FEDOGOLF now requires legal residency to play golf

I just saw this on DR1: https://dr1.com/forums/threads/fedogolf … cy.401273/

Apparently residency is a new requirement for Fedogolf membership. There are many Fedogolf members ( and have been for many years ) that are not residents, and until recently this was not an issue or requirement. A friend of mine is a long time Fedogolf member, and was told recently at our local course that they could no longer offer him the Fedo rate - EVEN THOUGH HE HAD PAID FOR A FULL YEARS MEMBERSHIP.

Discussion with management at the course : "THIS IS A FEDOGOLF REQUIREMENT AND WE DON'T WANT TO RUN AFOUL OF THEM."

Discussion with a FEDOGOLF person : "THIS IS A GOLF COURSE REQUIREMENT." and " THERE IS NO POINT IN YOUR FRIEND RENEWING MEMBERSHIP IF HE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE IT" ie show proof of residency at the courses.
Of course they would gladly take his annual membership fee regardless as there is NO requirement to include a residency number or cedula number in the online renewal.

This is so typically Dominican : no es mi culpa.

So this is a warning to non-resident Fedogolf members : you might want to reconsider renewing your membership, especially if you have set up automatic annual renewal. Lots of luck getting that refunded - LOL
