The CMAE has announced that R&A chief executive, Martin Slumbers,will open the 2019 European Conference on Club Management. Slumbers will present the opening session of the Conference and talk about the Destination and Future of the R&A, Golf Clubs and the Sustainability in which R&A’s Steve Isaac is currently working with Golf Course 2030, which was established in 2018 as an industry initiative to consider the impacts – both positive and negative – of the changing climate, resource constraints and regulation on course condition and playability. Its aim is to produce a roadmap that will steer the sport to address the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities that these issues present.
“It’s a great honour for us to welcome Martin and we look forward to him sharing his insights with delegates,” said CMAE’s director of education Torbjorn Johanssen. “It’s just one more reason for CMAE members to sign up to this year’s conference, which takes place at Clube Naval de Cascais, Portugal, over two days in November. Those booking their place before August 31 will benefit from an early bird discount of £444, a reduction of the full fee of £500.”
