As I understand it, the Clubs that are in danger are those considered Villages Clubs(sanctioned/licensed?) by The Villages. These clubs are allowed only to enlist members who are residents of TV. As such these clubs have access to rec center sites without charge. There are other groups which meet in TV that are not so sanctioned and allow outsiders to join (three Rotary Clubs ) for example).
