Greenlight Advisors has teamed up with the National Golf Course Owners Association (NGCOA) to invite municipal golf courses to participate in Greenlight’s “Exclusive 2024 Municipal Golf Study.” The objective of the study is to provide a clear financial picture for municipal golf course operators, and offer them an educational forum and a special Municipal Membership to both organizations.
Greenlight Advisors pioneered benchmarking for municipal golf course operators in 2022 when it successfully gathered data from hundreds of municipal golf courses across the United States, and published the first ever municipal operators benchmarking study. Participating courses included Salt Lake City Golf, Chicago Park District, Palm Beach County, Alamo City Golf Trail, and many other munis across the country.
Greenlight will evaluate and grade participating golf courses’ financial and operational performance data against industry benchmarks — classifying each metric as Top Quartile, Median or Bottom Quartile in an online “Best-in-Class Report CardTM.” This analysis will provide valuable insights into how golf courses compare to similar operations, highlighting potential financial and operational opportunities that may emerge. Armed with this information, municipal course operators can reassess their business strategies and make informed adjustments to capitalize on new prospects.
To participate, municipal golf facilities must sign up by November 30, 2024 at https://signup.golfclubbenchmarks.com; participants will receive details and next steps once registered.

Greenlight Advisors and the NGCOA plan to publish a story on the findings and will also hold a special Municipal session at NGCOA’s Golf Business Conference 2025 in Orlando.
