GolfMark has been recently updated and enhanced to better meet golf club requirements in today’s challenging commercial landscape, with an increased focus on improving business practices and development while also supporting the delivery of the club priorities within the forthcoming England Golf Strategic Plan 2014-2017.

GolfMark is a national accreditation that has been designed to support all golf clubs, however big or small to achieve distinct operating standards in four areas of a club’s business activity;

:: Recruitment & Retention– supporting your club to attract new members and increase the participation of existing members.

:: Management & Sustainability– helping to develop your club through practical business planning.

:: Coaching & Competitions– enhancing coaching and playing opportunities at your club for all golfers

:: Safeguarding– ensuring your club has appropriate policies and procedures in place

If your club is interested in gaining Golfmark accreditation a full explanation of the scheme including the benefits, rewards and recognition packages can be found at www.golfmark.org where clubs can also register online.
