Furthermore, in the first quarter of 2018 alone, over 60 new joiners signed up to make Formby Hall Golf Resort their home club. Given these fantastic triumphs, we have every reason to believe that Formby Hall Golf Resort will see further results at the end of 2019.

“Having added the PMG membership category to our options of club memberships two years ago, we have been delighted with the growth in our flexi-points memberships. We knew we had a market for this style of membership locally and the partnership with PMG has confirmed this. Yes, we had some concerns initially, but they have been completely removed now.”
“Any golf club looking to broaden their membership categories and attract more golfers to their facility would be crazy not to consider a partnership with PMG."
“These guys know their stuff when it comes to marketing and generating interest in the product. The PlayMoreGolf team will do a great job in helping to grow your clubs membership.”
“It’s no surprise to us that this incredible, long-established golf club has received so much interest via its flexible category. We look forward with great interest to the next few years and feel confident the golf club will continue to thrive.
“We want to thank Formby Hall Golf Resort for putting its faith in PlayMoreGolf and we’re thrilled they’re reaping huge rewards from this decision.”
