Objective
Strategic concepts, design and an effective financial and operational model to
transform an existing golf course into a multipurpose sports facility, optimising
space utilisation and diversifying usage and revenue streams.
Challenge
The resort was very golf-centric and focused on leveraging unused land to create
a multipurpose sports facility that could drive community engagement, increase
revenue, and boost memberships at the golf course.
Solution
Designing a multi-sport offering that went beyond golf-related activities. This
included indoor facilities for activities like an indoor driving range, indoor putt putt golf, padel tennis, POP tennis, pickleball, indoor soccer, and 3×3 basketball.
Additionally, amenities such as a car park, locker rooms, and an entertainment
the area was incorporated to enhance the overall experience.
Outcome
The multipurpose sports facility brought significant benefits, with the resort
achieving a utilisation rate of 70% to 80% throughout the day, translating into
increased revenue, substantial return on investment (ROI), community
engagement and a more vibrant atmosphere.
The operational model added revenue streams and created an additional
entertainment zone within the resort, appealing to a wider clientele beyond golf
enthusiasts. This fostered community engagement by providing schools and local
residents access to sports facilities during daytime hours.
