Increasing Social Media
Engagement at
Walmley Golf Club
Using Social Media to Attract New Members
Walmley Golf Club is located in the West Midlands, just north of Birmingham. Established over 100 years ago, this private-members club has a strong reputation in the local area but, as with most clubs, needed to tackle declining golf participation and increased commercial activity from its competitors.
Facilities at the club include:
- 18-hole Championship golf course
- Club restaurant with panoramic views across the course
- Golf shop & practice facilities
