Golf Business Australia and PGA of Australia renew partnership
May 25, 2020

Golf Business Australia (GBA) has announced the renewal partnership with the PGA of Australia, which will continue benefits for PGA Members and industry partners.

Working as an official licensee of the PGA for past two years, GBA has assisted many PGA clients in developing cost-effective and broad coverage insurance solutions nationwide.

The collaboration is set to continuously provide industry-specific insurance and services to PGA members. The union was continued with a great understanding of the challenges many clubs and golf business may be facing during the current pandemic.

Announcing the extension of the relationship, GBA founder and Managing Director Daniel Bateup stated "with Covid-19 continuing to disrupt, GBA is offering PGA Members up to 90 days to pay insurance premiums whilst keeping their assets protected.

“GBA believes in a united industry and the offer is our way of contributing to the continuity of golf in Australia beyond Covid-19,”

Bateup also said the renewed partnership was key to better serving customers by merging talent, expertise, technology and purpose.

Advising that through industry knowledge and the implementation of proven strategies, GBA has working relationships with both emerging and established golf businesses, Baatup added “I look forward to the continued opportunities to provide our products and services to the PGA and its members.

“Any partnership, big or small, will work best when there is a shared goal,”

“GBA clients are more than just a number- they are a partner in business.”

Michael McDonald, Commercial Director for the PGA went on to say "we are delighted to renew our partnership with GBA, they understand our members’ needs and many members have taken up the opportunity to contact Daniel and received great advice that has enabled them to better their insurance position accordingly.

"We look forward to continuing our association with GBA."
