GCMA Insights on GCTUK - Finance for Golf Clubs
This month we’re diving into the topic of Finance at Golf Clubs – with a particular focus on capital projects and asset finance. We’re joined by Malcolm Pennycott of Golf Finance, who brings his expertise to help demystify a subject that many clubs find challenging.
Finance can be a tricky area, especially for member-based clubs, where there is often hesitation or even fear around taking on debt. In this episode, we explore:
-
The types of projects and assets that can be financed.
-
Why irrigation and water storage have become such a hot topic in recent years.
-
How clubs can approach funding projects that may not be achievable without debt.
-
The importance of good governance in making sound financial decisions.
-
How to present a strong case to your Board and members when seeking approval.
This is an important conversation around an area that isn’t talked about nearly enough in our industry.
