Club Support Initiative Launched Golf Australia and Golf Tasmania are excited to announce the launch of a new Club Support Resource portal: clubsupport.golf.org.au Developed by Golf Australia in collaboration with key industry bodies including all State/Territory Golf Associations, PGA of Australia, Golf Management Australia, Australian Golf Course Superintendents Association and the Australian Sports Commission, the objective of the portal is to improve the capability, financial performance and sustainability of clubs. The portal can be freely accessed and includes a comprehensive array of resources that can be adopted by any size and type of club. Areas covered include: Strategic Planning & Governance, Financial Management, Risk Management, Insurance, Membership & Marketing, Facility Management, Workforce Management, Participation Programs and Case Studies & Research. Supporting the portal are two important online tools – Club Health Check and Golf Club Benchmarking. Club Health Check is a diagnostic tool provided by the Australian Sports Commission and now adapted specifically for golf clubs. It involves a series of questions related to the various aspects of running a club. Once submitted, an instant report is generated giving a club feedback and providing an action plan on addressing the areas that are critical to a club’s success. Golf Club Benchmarking is a business intelligence tool developed by Golf Management Australia. With this tool, clubs can enter data such as revenue, subscription fees, and operational costs and generate reports to benchmark themselves against other golf clubs in Australia. The resources have been developed through harnessing the knowledge and expertise of the entire golf industry which is very powerful and can provide real benefits to any golf club in Australia. Tasmanian golf clubs that are concerned for their survival, (I believe that would be the majority,) can now access assistance garnered from very powerful allies. Please share this resource with your club hierarchy if they are not aware of it, and let’s start turning the declining viability of clubs around. Tony Bush Chair
