Abstract
Clubs come in so many different types and forms, that it becomes necessary to classify them, much the way we do with hotels. Hotels may be classified by size (number of guest rooms), service level (economy to luxury), price (based on average rate), location, etc. Clubs are classified in a slightly different way. When we discuss the types of clubs that exist, we can do so in six different ways:
1 By primary activity/location
2 By clientele
3 Equity/nonequity
4 Size (by number of members, gross volume, or initiation fee)
5 By ownership
6 Tax status
