NORTHBROOK, Ill., Dec. 17, 2014 – KemperSports announced today that, for the third consecutive year, it has been named the Club Management Company of the Year by the BoardRoom magazine. The three consecutive years of being honored is unprecedented in the 16-year history of the magazine’s “Excellence in Achievement” awards.
“Each of the recipients of the BoardRoom magazine “Excellence in Achievement” awards are clearly leaders in their respective industries,” said John Fornaro, publisher of the BoardRoom magazine.
The honor comes during a year in which the organization added numerous private clubs to its portfolio, including Apple Ridge Country Club, Greeley Country Club, San Jose Country Club, The Fountains Country Club and La Gorce Country Club. The clubs all joined KemperCollection, KemperSports’ growing portfolio of private clubs.
In addition to the portfolio’s growth with private clubs, KemperSports continued on its long-standing mission to grow the game of golf. To commemorate the organizations commitment to player development, KemperSports launched a Player Development Program that introduced the game of golf in a fun and unintimidating manner to thousands of new golfers around the country.
“To be named as Club Management Company of the year for the third year in a row is a wonderful honor for our dedicated staff throughout the country who work tirelessly to deliver exceptional experiences for members and their guests,” said KemperSports CEO Steve Skinner.
KemperSports representatives will accept the award in March at the Club Manager’s Association of America (CMAA) Conference in San Antonio, Texas.
