Inglewood Golf Club

What Inglewood Golf Club does

Inglewood Golf Club is a private, member-owned 501(c)(7) nonprofit golf club founded on December 12, 1919, and located at 6505 Inglewood Road NE in Kenmore, Washington, on the north end of Lake Washington. The club operates an 18-hole championship golf course designed by A.V. Macan (a Canadian architect who designed more than 31 courses, including California Golf Club of San Francisco and Royal Colwood), with a layout offering multiple tees from 4,927 to 6,939 yards and course ratings from 64.2 to 74.0. The 1926 French Provincial clubhouse — rebuilt after a 1925 fire and recently restored — houses dining, lounge, ballroom, and event-hosting capabilities, and was remodeled in 2018 (dining room, lounge, women's locker room, bathrooms). Supporting amenities include a grass driving range, two putting greens, two chipping greens, a practice bunker upgraded in 2011, and live 1st Tee and 9th Green cameras.

The club serves three membership tiers: Full Equity Golf Members (primary segment) with unlimited course access, reciprocal privileges at other private clubs, professional instruction, tournament play, and room-rental discounts; Jr. Exec Members aged 21–40 with full golf privileges at reduced rates; and Social Members with unlimited Clubhouse dining/lounge access, social events, and limited Twilight golf play four times per season. Membership is by invitation only, requires sponsorship by two current golf members, and is approved by the Membership Committee and Board of Trustees. The recurring-subscription revenue model relies on annual membership dues supplemented by F&B, event hosting (weddings, celebrations), and tournament operations. The club has hosted the PGA Seattle Open, LPGA Valhalla Open, LPGA Legends Tour, PNGA Amateur Championship, Fred Couples Invitational, and USGA qualifying events.

The entity has no parent company, no external funding, no subsidiaries, and no M&A activity. It is a member-owned organization that became debt-free with cash reserves by 2012, survived two bankruptcies (1934, 1940) and a WWII closure, transitioned to member ownership in 1975, and celebrated its centennial in 2019. Headcount is 51–100 employees, including 4 PGA Professionals and 1 LPGA Professional. The club has no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, no proprietary software beyond basic live cameras, and operates exclusively within the Pacific Northwest / Washington state geographic footprint.

Broad incumbents
