National Finals – Club Zone
Thursday 10th to Sunday 27th August 2023
GROW YOUR CLUB AND RECEIVE TWO FREE TICKETS TO AVIVA NATIONAL FINALS
Do you want to increase your club’s membership? Would you like to learn more about generating additional income or receive first-hand advice on greens maintenance?
Then we’d like to invite you to join us for a session in our Club Zone at the Aviva National Finals in Royal Leamington Spa.
One of our key strategic commitments is to provide an increased level of support to affiliated clubs. We are doing this by delivering and expanding our range of club services to support clubs, their committees and all members.
To help inform you we are running dedicated sessions for club volunteers each day at the Aviva National Finals from Thursday 10th to Sunday 27th August inclusive with the programme featuring topics such as club funding, recruitment, coaching, umpiring and greens maintenance presented by a number of specialist speakers
Each session is limited to 30 people and every attendee will receive two free tickets to the Aviva National Finals so you can attend the session and enjoy the remainder of the day at Victoria Park.
This is a huge opportunity for you and fellow club members to find out more about our support to affiliated clubs, officials and volunteers.
