What does ClubMark mean?
Clubs awarded Clubmark have seen many tangible benefits, such as:
- Club development: The foundation for any club is its youth structure. By encouraging and attracting young members, it is building a strong future.
- Increased membership: Addressing issues like equity and child protection gives parents confidence when choosing a club for their children.
- Developing coaches and volunteers: As part of Clubmark, clubs receive help in developing the skills of those involved in their organisation.
- Raised profile: Once Clubmark accredited, clubs will be listed on a national database and in other directories, to help them attract new members and grow.
How does it link with GolfMark?
The EGU/EWGA have incorporated the Clubmark criteria into the GolfMark programme. There is no duplication of effort required by golf clubs - one process and one set of paperwork
