Golf Month: only six weeks away now

Golf Month 2016 is fast approaching. With 265 facilities and over 18,000 participants in last year’s campaign, Golf Month once again aims to get more people playing golf around Australia this October.

If your club is not yet on board, it’s not too late. Now is a good time to start planning activities and uploading them to the Golf Month website so they appear to the general public on the map.

Clubs and facilities can run any sort of activity. Ideas include open days, clinics, three, six and nine-hole events, family days, and community events, women’s clinics, twilight events, MyGolf and Swing Fit sessions.

This year’s Golf Month advertising will feature on the radio in metropolitan areas and on TV in regional areas, alongside significant social media and digital advertising. We’ll be sharing a whole range of other engaging content during October, so watch this space.

This year, Golf Month is giving away two incredible 2017 ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open experiences in Adelaide, including flights, accommodation, clubhouse tickets and a place in the Pro-Am. One will be given away to a club member who introduces a new member to their club and the other will be given away to a lucky Golf Month 2016 participant. Clubs and facilities can download posters to promote these competitions from www.golfmonth.com.au. We’ll also be running a social media competition throughout Golf Month, which will see us give away a Cobra King F6 Driver every week.

Golf Month – less than six weeks to go!
