There are 50+ singles golf clubs in the U.S. They each meet during the second or third week of the month on a week night, usually from 6- 8 pm at a local restaurant. A good turnout for meetings is important because singles want to meet other singles, so members are always encouraged to bring a friend to the meeting, monthly social, golf outings, cookouts, or anything the club is involved in.

The meetings are fun and informal. Most clubs have guest speakers occasionally and these people speak about how to improve your golf game, how to read greens, etc. The members come away from the meetings with thoughts like "I really met some nice people" and "I'm excited about improving my golf game." They know that playing golf once or twice each month with other singles will improve their game and enhance their social life, and they look forward to this involvement.

Research found the male/female ratio is within 1% of being 50/50.

Each club has to have some organization, and that comes in the form of a club president, four committee heads, a secretary, treasurer. Without this structure, the club will simply fall apart, and people will stop having fun.
