We believe golf can do great things for our industry. But in order to prove it, we have to get out and play.

Growing the Game
Cut the greens, cut the cups, let’s get out and make some putts. We can grow more than just great grass for golf. Let’s grow a community of golfing greenkeepers that remembers to get out and play, to network and enjoy the game we work so hard to deliver. It is time for Greenkeepers to get together on the course and enjoy the member experience. One goal of the GK GC is to build a collection of events that lead to an annual stroke play champion from within our industry. In addition to events we also want to help facilitate, encourage and simplify the process to get out and play with others in the industry. You have the opportunity to be a part of helping to craft this model. Join us as we work early and play late.
Announcing Membership (Beta) For 2025
To be considered a club members are a necessary element. For 2025 membership will be an included value for anyone who registers and participates in any of the 2025 GK GC events. Just for playing you get the opportunity to be a member and receive the benefits valid for the year. That means you will be able to consider yourself a proud member of the Greenkeepers Golf Club and have a voice in shaping its future. If you are not able to make it to a GK GC event but still want to be included there will be a remote option for those who cannot make it in person but still want to have a voice, get the access and enjoy the benefits. The first events are growing here in the Pacific Northwest but there is no reason why the GK GC cannot operate anywhere there are greenkeepers who enjoy getting out amongst others in the industry and playing some golf. The overarching concept to all of this is building a network of golfing greenkeepers who want to get out, connect and play, and on occasion; compete. So what does membership include:
The Greenkeepers GC Membership (Beta)
Discord Server Access- Some golfing societies refer to this as their virtual clubhouse and it is an accurate description. Members can connect, network and help advise in club dealings and direction such as merch decisions, art, event format and more. Plan is for server to be live mid April 2025.
Member Exclusive Pricing- Pre order merchandise at near cost pricing, still get a discount when it is in stock, and eventually event pricing discounts as well.
Member Exclusive Access- Members will always have first priority when travel golf opportunities and local play opportunities arise.
Member Bag Tag
Eventual USGA Virtual Club status with Handicap- This will take a little time and some work from within the membership. Status could be achieved in ‘26.
NO AUTOPAY- That’s right, another great business decision here. While we establish the membership and iron out details, there will be no CC on file that gets run annually when you forget about it. Either you want to be here or you don’t.
The whole idea is to provide a member experience at a maximum value for those in the greenkeeping community. Behind the scenes we will consistently work to find and create value to offer our members first and then partners who share in our values and commitment to enjoy the game we work to deliver for so many others.
