R&A Benchmarking

Working in conjunction with the R&A Golf Course Committee the Scottish Golf Union and Scottish Ladies’ Golfing Association have developed a bespoke Scottish version of the Benchmarking Tool.  Golf clubs can use this tool to record and monitor their operational performance in respect of course management matters. This tool also allows golf clubs to anonymously compare themselves to other clubs, either by course type e.g. parkland, links, etc or by geographical region across a wide range of course management aspects.

The Benchmarking website has been restructured for three distinct audiences – Greenkeepers, Club Administrators and individual golfers, each section being geared to the requirements of each separate audience, which we hope users find a useful reference tool.

Affiliated golf clubs can access the bespoke ‘Scottish’ version of the Benchmarking Tool by registering on the Benchmarking website
