Golf needs to adopt a more inclusive subscription model to grow and evolve – London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com

Golf is at a pivotal moment. Once central to the sport, traditional club memberships are in decline as the financial pressures of rising fees collide with a shifting, more diverse player base.

With membership losses reported across the UK—19% in England, 28% in Scotland, and 53% in Ireland and Northern Ireland—many players are opting out of expensive monthly club memberships in favour of flexibility.

Simultaneously, the rise of off-course golf formats like simulators and venues such as Topgolf are drawing millions of newcomers. These formats appeal to younger, more diverse audiences, including a 47% female player base, who are often disconnected from the traditional on-course game.

The challenge is clear: to survive, golf must evolve into a more inclusive and flexible experience that meets the demands of modern players.

Enter PostConnectPlay—a revolutionary platform built to address these challenges. Designed as a simple, user-friendly hub, PostConnectPlay empowers golfers to meet, connect, and play anywhere, anytime. By offering flexibility and a strong community focus, it reimagines the way people interact with the game.
