Membership

California State Club Association (CSCA) stands for the right of every truly private club to determine its own membership policy and to manage its own operations free of direct or indirect government dictation, supervision or interfer­ence. This it defends as a right guaranteed by both the federal and the state constitutions. For more information click here for CSCA's membership brochure.

CSCA, organized in 1970, is a California nonprofit, mutual benefit corporation. It currently has ~120 members, all of which are private clubs, including many of the leading clubs of this state. Its purpose is to serve the club community. CSCA is the only entity that speaks for its member clubs at the state level. 

CSCA's effectiveness depends not only upon reasoned arguments but also upon its political clout. This in turn depends upon the total number of individual club members - the total number of voters - that it represents. Based on the average club membership and the family of the average club member consisting of four adults, CSCA represents hundreds of thousands of California voters. Each new member club adds from 500 to 5,000 additional voters to the total number being represented by CSCA! To combat the increasingly severe attacks being made upon private clubs, CSCA needs all of the political muscle it can develop.
