Press Release

The Golf Club Managers’ Association (GCMA) is proud to announce that The Revenue Club has joined the Association as an official Education Partner, strengthening GCMA’s commitment to supporting golf club managers with high-quality, commercially focused professional development.

The Revenue Club is widely recognised for its practical, results-driven approach to improving revenue performance across golf clubs and leisure businesses. Through its education programmes, strategic insight and hands-on consultancy, The Revenue Club supports clubs in maximising income, improving member and customer experiences, and building sustainable business models.

The collaboration will form part of GCMA’s wider education partnership programme, ensuring members have access to specialist insight that reflects the evolving commercial realities of running a successful golf club. By adding The Revenue Club’s commercial expertise, the partnership aims to deliver relevant, actionable learning that can be applied immediately within clubs.

Rob Corcoran, Director of The Revenue Club, added:

“We are delighted to be working with the GCMA to help their members understand the potential that lies within their own online channels, and provide insightful, up-to-date information on how the market is performing and developing.

There have been significant advances in golf club technology and digital marketing over the last few years, and it is astounding how many clubs are missing out on the opportunity to use their existing systems to their full potential to grow revenue and improve efficiencies.

We’re really looking forward to engaging with the GCMA members at a greater level to demonstrate how they can harness their technology to increase sales and make their lives easier, while offering real insight into cutting edge data to help make informed decisions on their overall visitor strategy.”

The partnership reflects GCMA’s ongoing strategy to collaborate with leading organisations that can enhance the professional capabilities of its members and support the long-term success of the golf industry.

John Steele

John Steele is a former professional athlete, sports coach, Olympic Leader and is the Executive Director of Sport at Loughborough University. He has been Chief Executive across a range of sectors. Drawing on leadership experience of nine different Olympic and Paralympic Games (including the amazing events at the Rio Games), John reflects on the lessons from this unique period in British sport and relays his fascinating views on creating high performing teams.

Indeed, inspired from PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games, by the most successful performance ever for Team GB, he has a whole host of new business and leadership insights into how this was brilliant performance was achieved and how it can translate back into your organisation.

John moved into the corporate world, before he enjoyed an outstanding career as a professional rugby player achieving international honours. After his playing career, he turned his hand to coaching and achieved the highest accolade for a British club coach by winning the European Cup with Northampton Saints. He then became Executive Director on the Saints Board during a period of unprecedented growth, and served on the England Rugby Board during the successful world cup campaign of 2003. It was no surprise that John’s talents were called upon to drive through a change and modernisation programme as CEO of the Rugby Football Union – a challenge that became controversial and ended in his departure from the post after only a year, but with his dignity and professional pride intact.

Headhunted by UK Sport, John took up post as CEO the day before London won the 2012 Olympic bid – and this promising start was sustained as he embarked on developing the UK’s high performance sport system, which he led for a six-year period of unprecedented success through the Beijing and London Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Post-London 2012, with the Olympic legacy in place and an obligation to continue inspiring a generation, John took up his post as Group Chief Executive of the Youth Sport Trust. He has also succeeded Steve Cram as Chairman of the English Institute of Sport, an organisation described as ‘the team behind the team’, which delivers a range of performance impacting solutions to over 40 Olympic and Paralympic sports and some non-Olympic sports.
