I noticed that the forum allows anyone to register. Is there a way to disable this? For example, I have a club and I want only the club members to be able to register. I looked through the admin pages but I can't find any that will allow me to apply this rule to the forum.

One way I can think of is by having the administrator to approve a membership before anyone can become a member. Can this be done?

This question goes in the support section not in the modifications section.

And yes, as an admin you have the option to approve membership for newly registered members. To do that, go to the admin area and click on Email Configuration Setup under the 'General Admin' tab, then scroll down and set to on, the option Administrator Member Activation.
