I found it curious that the Slug Club seemed to be conspicuously absent of Hufflepuffs, and believe that, had he been alive when Slughorn was teaching at Hogwarts, Cedric Diggory would have been a member of the Slug Club. Given his position as Captain and Seeker of the Hufflepuff quidditch team in his fifth year, we already know that he's accomplished in the wizarding world's favourite spot, and we've seen that Slughorn also appreciates those who excel in athletics, given his relationship with Gwenog Jones of the Holyhead Harpies. Academically speaking, he was a good student, and a prefect. As well, his father appears to be a bit well-connected in the Ministry, given that it is he who interrogates Winky at the Quidditch World Cup. Cedric's selection as Hogwart's champion for the Triwizard Tournament would have cemented Slughorn's opinion of Cedric, and would certainly have bought him a seat at the Slug Club, given the fame involved.
