Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
As a site director for LPGA-USGA Girls’ Golf, we run numerous clinics/activities/playing opportunities for girls golf, throughout the year. For our tour, the Impact Junior Tournament Series, we run 20 tournaments through the course of the year including 3, 6, and 9-hole tournaments for all skill levels and ages junior players. This year’s tournament series included 42 kids who were brand new to the game of golf, with a record high 28% female participation. Our series averaged 86 players per event.
Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
Our Impact Junior Golf Tour has grown into the second-largest junior golf tournament in Georgia based on participants per event. We offer a spring and a summer tour, each with three skill-specific clinics weekly.
Along with the tournament day, clinics keep students and their families engaged in the golf club four days per week
The tour and its associated activities have encouraged many families in the area to become members of our facility.
Clinics, camps, and our tour has increased activity at the club not only on the range and course but in our food and beverage area as well. Families enjoy spending time with their juniors on the course, sharing meals, and engaging in other club activities.
