About the AGIC Monthly Rounds Data Project
The Australian Golf Industry Council (AGIC) Monthly Rounds Data Project is an innovative research project that aims to help the industry ‘stay ahead of the game.’ The project is reliant on the collection of monthly round data from clubs across Australia so that industry trends can be tracked and reported regularly for the benefit of the entire industry.
The research project will be delivered by Golf Australia in conjunction with Golf Link Partners, on behalf of the AGIC, with the AGIC Research Group overseeing the project. With over 1200 clubs currently using Golf Link, individual competition round data is already available nationally, however other competition rounds (for example: Foursomes/Match Play etc) and noncompetition/ social rounds,) have never before been collected at such regular intervals. Utilising the Golf Link system these rounds will now also be calculated, with all courses, including those not using the Golf Link system, invited to be part of the project.
The AGIC is aware that many golf clubs across Australia already collect information regarding rounds played at the club and this is analysed at management and Board levels regularly. This project is designed to activate the collection and reporting of both competition and non-competition round data on an industry wide basis with reports generated and distributed quarterly to the entire industry. This is a critically important project and is highly valued by all member organisations of the AGIC. A key outcome of the project will be that clubs can generate their own reports and benchmark against other clubs nationally, within a state/region or against other “like clubs” as a cluster.
It is important to note that no individual club will be identified in the reports.
