Would it not be best to combine all theses into building=clubhouse?
I'm not opposed to the general idea of having a sport-independent tag for clubhouses, if we can agree on a suitable tag. However, please remember that the value of building=* does _not_ indicate what the building is used for. So I don't think it's a good choice for this purpose.

Building is supposed to be used for the outside appearance.
However building=house is used, and there are many different varieties of appearances of houses .. yet they all have the same function.
Similar variations exist for other OSM buildings.
Yet there looks to be little in the way of mappers complaining about the tagging. Clubhouses exhibit a similar range, yet they do have characteristics that help identify them.

Leaving them marked building=yes and having to include another tag for 'clubhouse' I don't think is good.

If there is to be yet another tag then perhaps building:function=* might be used? Of course almost all building=house would be tagged building:function=house, same for commercial etc etc .. they almost always have the same function. There, of course, are a few exceptions... perhaps this is a way of tagging them. The default value for building:function could be taken as that of the building= tag to make life easier for the vast majority of features.
