McLeod Country Golf Club is an 18-hole golf course located in Mount Ommaney, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.[2][3]
It was the first golf club in Australia to give women members equal rights to men, and is one of few golf clubs in the world administered entirely by female members,[3][4] although both men and women have always been playing members of the Club. In December 2020, the voting women members of the club voted to change the Club's constitution to give male members voting rights (voting male numbers may be equal to but not exceed voting female members), and the affairs of the Club are to be managed and exercised by a Board of nine (9) Directors. Five (5) of the Directors will be women and four (4) of the Directors will be men.
