Stunning Gary Player Design the Latest Famed Layout to Feature Industry Leading System

(CHANDLER, Ariz.) – ProLink Solutions – a wholly-owned subsidiary of ProLink Holdings Corp. (OTC BB: PLKH.OB) and the world’s leading provider of Global Positioning Satellite ("GPS") golf course management systems and digital out-of-home on-course advertising – today announces its exclusive distributor in South Africa, Elumina South Africa, will install the ProLink system at Leopard Creek Country Club (Malelane, Mpumalanga). The system installed was purchased from ProLink under ProLink’s distribution agreement.

Ranked South Africa’s No. 1 course by Golf Digest and many other national and international publications, Leopard Creek is a stunning Gary Player design four hours east of Johannesburg. The members-only club incorporates innovative architectural and landscaping techniques to ensure that the course and buildings remain in harmony with the environment. Numerous lakes and streams dictate play at Leopard Creek, where hippos, crocodiles and other wildlife are often present.

In seeking to enhance its members’ experience while streamlining operations, Leopard Creek selected ProLink GPS over all competitors to install its state-of-the-art system. Leopard Creek joins many of South Africa’s top courses and resorts in featuring ProLink, including 2003 Presidents Cup host Fancourt Hotel and Country Club Estate (George), Arabella (Kleinmond), Lost City (Sun City) and Zimbali Country Club (Ballito).

Opened in 1996, Leopard Creek borders the Crocodile River and Kruger National Park. Memorable holes abound including the par-5 18th, featuring an island green, and the par-5 fourth, whose green borders the river. Sightings of elephants, antelope and even lions are common at Leopard Creek, which was developed by international business entrepreneur and Southern Africa PGA Tour chairman Johann Rupert.

"Leopard Creek is an extraordinary golf experience and we are delighted the club chose Elumina and ProLink for its GPS solutions," says Elumina South Africa CEO Andrew Nelson. "This marks another step toward installing ProLink at all of South Africa’s top golf properties, and delivering our advertising partners an upscale audience no other medium can offer."

Added Lawrence D. Bain, CEO of ProLink Solutions: "We’re honored to be selected as the GPS provider for a club with the international prestige of Leopard Creek. An increasing number of private courses are installing ProLink GPS due to its player enhancements, management capabilities, reliability and proven return on investment. ProLink’s global growth is further evidence that our system is a must-have component of any successful golf operation."

With advertising-ready screens installed at more than 500 courses worldwide, ProLink is featured at 2006 Ryder Cup host the K Club in Ireland, 1997 Ryder Cup host Valderrama in Spain, and PGA TOUR event venues such as Kapalua Resort. In fact, ProLink’s international reach extends to 15 countries on five continents.
