Geelong is celebrating another membership record, with the club's 2017 membership tally confirmed as 56,427.

This places the Cats in eighth place on the AFL membership ladder.

The membership tally includes AFL Members who have a club support package linked to Geelong.

The tally also includes the club's more than 600 Women's Pioneer members.

"A big thank you to all our members," Cats chief executive Brian Cook said after the figures were released on Wednesday.

"It's an unbelievable outcome for our club to again break our membership record.

"We're more than eight per cent up on last year and we have a total of more than 56,000 members, which means we can compete with the high-drawing clubs in Melbourne.

"When you go back and look our game against Richmond last weekend, the fan engagement was just outstanding.

"So thank you very, very much to our members for their amazing support."
