By hosting international tournaments such as the Solheim Cup and the Scandinavian Masters, Skåne has enjoyed major exposure overseas for a number of years, and international demand for Skåne golf products is steadily growing.
The main objective of the Golf in Skåne project is to improve accessibility, and make it easier for companies operating on the international market to sell golf packages in Skåne. In turn, this will benefit golf clubs, restaurants, transport companies, accommodation establishments, and a number of companies involved in the tourist industry in Skåne. Another objective is to encourage more golf clubs in Skåne to develop the commercial side of their activities, and bring their facilities up to the standards demanded by an international market.
Golf in Skåne will ensure that the golf products are packaged together with accommodation, meals, transport, etc. so that the overall experience satisfies the expectations of the international golf customer. Our partner, Nordic Travel, handles all the packaging and sales contacts, and has long experience of composing golf packages.
At present (2006), 12 golf clubs in Skåne are participating in the project. Participating clubs must satisfy a number of criteria before they can be included in the project. This is to ensure that the quality of the golf product reaches the high levels demanded by the international market. Later, other clubs in Skåne that satisfy the criteria will be able to join the project at any time.
