YMCA Membership

What is YMCA Membership?

As a program participant at your local YMCA, we also welcome you as a Member of the broader YMCA movement.

We hope that your involvement in YMCA programs has a positive impact on your life because it helps us make a huge impact on the lives of others; that's what it means to be a YMCA Member!

As a YMCA Member, we will share with you some of the great stories from around the Y. Stories about people whose lives you are helping to change, just through your involvement in YMCA Programs; because every person involved in our programs contributes to our efforts in building strong people, families and communities.

We also welcome you to our global network of over 45 million members across 124 countries, building 12,000 stronger communities.

To become a YMCA Member, visit your local YMCA and join one of the many programs on offer.

YMCA Member Benefits: Reciprocal Rights

As an added benefit of YMCA Membership, you can enjoy casual access to many other YMCA aquatic, fitness and recreation facilities, across NSW and in some other states. Perhaps you're going away, in the city for a meeting or out of town on business, whatever the reason, YMCA Members are welcomed across the Y!

Whilst children under 16 years are not allowed to use YMCA fitness facilities, they can enjoy a swim at any one of our aquatic centres or any number of other activities on offer.

The reciprocal rights program is for use at YMCAs other than your own. The table below details what's available where. Some terms and conditions apply.
