Golf Booms on the Coast
A Golf Australia report highlighting the nationwide boom in golf as a direct result of COVID-19 comes as no surprise to Sunshine Coast golf club managers. The report showed 42,000 Australians had joined golf clubs in the 10 months to the beginning of November – representing a 5 per cent annual increase in membership. Maroochy River general manager Charlie McGill saw the surge in membership coming even before the pandemic.
