I get that you can't change a linked field (that would be to easy).
I have a conference in the list. the linked shows all the clubs in that conference (That's why I have to use the conference ID and Club ID as the linked field).
But I want to move the club to a different Conference. This would be the same as moving a car to a different sales lot, a common task for most projects.
The only way I can think of is build a view for the club and with a Conference lookup change it there.
Or can this be achieved with custom code or am I missing something?

The field that links master and details together is not meant to be changed, it may lead to orphaned records.
If you need to make changes to that field add a custom view of the details table, do not link it as master-details and change its value via that custom view.
