Richard Dixon Chief Executive Officer of Wales Golf said: “I am delighted to welcome PlayMoreGolf as one of our Preferred Partners. Our research tells us that clubs which offer flexible packages are the most likely to increase their membership and I am sure there will be enormous interest in this new partnership and the discount offer.”
Jamie Carroll, PlayMoreGolf Director, commented: “We partner with golf clubs to grow their existing or launch a new flexible membership category to complement their traditional membership options. With PlayMoreGolf, each club controls and customises how their flexible membership operates to fit their requirements and enable growth of overall membership revenue.
“In addition to providing the online platform that administers the membership for clubs, reducing both time and costs, our club specific marketing activity and dedicated Club Support Managers drive new flexible members to clubs, generating guaranteed contracted revenue and reducing the seasonality of pay and play golf to help golf clubs thrive and succeed.
“We are delighted to be partnering with Wales Golf having done the same with England Golf last year whose research shows there are over 2 million golfers who enjoy golf but are not attached to a golf club. PlayMoreGolf provides both the network and infrastructure to meet the demands of the modern younger golfer, providing the benefits of membership and catering for the desire to play at other courses, whilst fitting these around busy modern lifestyles.”
