Golf Express is designed to inspire busy people to play more golf by promoting the 9-hole game as a complete and enjoyable experience. Modern life is often hectic, meaning there can be limited time to play the 18-hole game of golf. Under the slogan of “All the game in half the time” Golf Express offers a solution by promoting shorter rounds to get more people playing. Golfers can easily fit 9-holes into busy lifestyles, in which two hours is now the span for most leisure activities. The 9-hole round of golf is consistent with the traditions of playing the game and is compatible with the Rules of Golf and the handicap system. This format can fit conveniently into a busy schedule and is ideal for after work.

Clubs can take advantage of:

• Marketing support - Golf Express is supported by a national marketing campaign with local support.
• Website – www.Golfexpress9.org  has a directory of places to play and 9-hole offers.
• Social media - Facebook.com/golfexpress9 and www.Twitter.com/golfexpress9 .
