Golf Clubs

Plummer Parsons  (PP) sports team have worked with many golf clubs not only doing audit and accounts work but also within our specialist area of CASC.

CASC is becoming a lot more relevant for golf clubs as they see member numbers declining which is affecting their levels of income.

Golf clubs upon CASC registration immediately benefit  from 80% off their annual rates bill which will go someway to addressing the fall in income.

Our team have helped many clubs through the CASC registration process which is often complicated by the necessary rule changes that clubs often have to introduce and essentially get approved by the members.

PP have recently met with Paul Keeling from the EGU and discussed how PP can help their member Golf clubs.

PP's main service will be to take away the burden of the administrative work of the CASC registration and will help guide clubs through the often somewhat  detailed registration process including the offer of attending an AGM/EGM where rule changes will have to be agreed by members.

We can also assist clubs within the VAT areas ensuring clubs aren't overlooking missed VAT opportunities.

If golf clubs are looking for another source of investment or saving to help develop their facilities we can help advise on other opportunities that may be available to your club.

If you would like to talk to someone in the sports team please email sports@plummer-parsons.co.uk or call the office on 01323 431200.

 Testimonials

"Having decided to apply for Registration as a Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC), Ashby Decoy Golf Club Management Committee talked to other clubs who had acquired this status to establish their views and experience to date.

The Committee decided it was desirable to appoint professional advisors to maximise the chance of a positive application.

We chose Plummer Parsons who seemed to be the leader in this area of expertise. Initially, we thought that their location in the South of England would be a major constraint but this was not a problem.

A combination of excellent and relevant literature plus regular telephone and email contacts concluded with a face to face meeting to brief our committee in the clubhouse ahead of an EGM which approved our submission.

Without doubt, their support over two years was the key factor in our obtaining a successful application and we would recommend Plummer- Parsons to any other Sports Clubs who are considering a similar application."

Jacqueline Packham, Secretary, Willingdon Golf Club, EASTBOURNE

"We would like to thank Plummer Parsons for their expertise relating to CASCs. They recently attended our EGM where members voted on the proposal to enter the scheme and make the necessary constitution changes. They were able to provide us with the answers to the many questions that were asked by our members. Thank you for all your advice and assistance."
