Are you a PGA or LPGA Professional looking to streamline and expand your summer business? PGA Camps, the PGA of America’s signature camps for boys and girls ages 6-18, provides a simple, yet customized approach to help you eliminate administrative duties related to your summer camps. Our PGA and LPGA Professional partners leave all marketing, sales, registration and customer service responsibilities to us, giving them more time to grow other parts of their business. In 2022, a record 10,000+ juniors attended PGA Camps, at over 175 locations across the country, generating $2.5 million for our PGA and LPGA partners.
Our team works on the following elements to ensure our partners’ success:
Marketing Support:
- Individual website page: Each of our partners has an individual camp page listed on our website. Pictures, staff bios, property descriptions and specific camp dates are listed so customers can see all camp details on one page.
- Customized emails: We create and send location-specific emails to past campers, as well as any customer lists golf professionals would like to include. PGA and LPGA Professionals also have access to these emails at any point, so if they would prefer to upload the creative to an email blast, that option is available to them.
- Social media posts: Our team offers social media posts for golf professionals to use on all platforms. We offer multiple posts, as well as copy to go along with each individual post.
- On-site collateral (postcards, yard signs, banners and flyers): Early in the calendar year, all locations receive an outdoor, weatherproof banner. You will also receive two yard signs, each with a QR Code, which can easily be moved to different locations on the property. Our team additionally provides personalized postcards for each location, so customers can leave the course with information in hand.
- Camper amenity packages: All campers receive goodie packages, which are delivered to the golf course prior to the start of camp. Past packages have included a hat, a sleeve of golf balls, a water bottle, a pair of socks and a drawstring backpack. Golf professionals have the option of passing these out at the beginning of the camp week or distributing them as a part of their closing ceremony.
Customer Service:
- Email support: Customers can email our office at any time, and they will receive a response within 24 hours.
- Call Center for all partner locations: We offer support seven days a week for all calls, which includes PGA and LPGA Professionals, as well as parents/guardians. The majority of phone communication happens between May and September, starting at 7 a.m. ET and ending at 5 p.m. PT.
- Registration platform: PGA Camps offers an easy-to-use registration platform for parents and guardians. Each customer has their own account, where they can view recent transactions and credits. The system is password-protected, so all customer information is secure.
- Program development: Our team has vast experience in program development, working with juniors from age three to those who want to play in college. We are always available to discuss next steps with parents or to help you develop age-appropriate curriculum outside of the summer camp experience.
- Member prospecting: For private golf facilities or public courses with membership opportunities, PGA Camps are an invaluable member prospecting tool. Through our camps, families get a firsthand look at all the club has to offer in a fun,educational setting for their children.
