Scottsdale,
AZ – July 2019 / Newsmaker Alert / Troon®,
the leader in club management, player development, and marketing, has launched
The Bay Club Academy Powered by Troon at three Bay Club golf properties
in California, including StoneTree Golf Club in Novato, Boulder Ridge Golf
Club in San Jose and Fairbanks Ranch Country Club in Rancho Santa Fe. The
Bay Club Academy Powered by Troon is a program dedicated to player improvement
and advancement, allowing for players of all levels and ages to engage
in the game and further develop their skills through the use of technology
and golf-specific physical fitness. The Bay Club Academy program was created
by Troon’s Global Director of Education and Coaching Tim
Mahoney.
“I
am excited by the opportunity to develop the Bay Club Academy,” said Mahoney,
a Golf Digest Top 100 Instructor. “I believe that bridging
the gap between fitness and the golf course is essential to the future
of golf. Incorporating golf-specific physical fitness, strength and mobility
training, with an active golf lifestyle will allow Bay Club members to
play better, play longer, play pain-free, and ultimately have more fun.”
In
addition to golf-specific physical fitness, strength and mobility training,
the Bay Club Academy will incorporate technology enhanced player development.
Trackman technology, including on-range monitors and iPads will be used
for stat tracking and game improvement. Instructors will also utilize Huddle
cloud-based technology for sharing information with members and students.
The
Bay Club portfolio encompasses a collection of 26 properties across nine
active lifestyle campuses in California and Oregon focused on fitness,
sports, family and hospitality. Members of Bay Club enjoy a range of high-end
lifestyle amenities typically only found at country clubs and luxury resorts.
Founded in 1977, Bay Club is recognized as the pioneer of the urban sports
resort. Currently, three Bay Club campuses offer golf as a member amenity.
In addition to playing award-winning golf courses, members can enjoy casual
pre- and post-round dining, regular member-only tournaments and events,
professional instruction, practice facility access, and resort-style clubhouses.
