The 2021 Golf Season Begins
The NGCOA Canada Research Reports are important business tools for all golf facilities across Canada. At press time and due to the timing of the reporting cycle, February is the most current month for Rounds Played, Weather and Revenue Tracker reports. Due to the seasonality of our golf season, rounds and weather for the months of January and February are mainly focused on courses in British Columbia. However, the Revenue Tracker Report is representative of the entire country, twelve months of the year.

REPORT HIGHLIGHTS:
The Prairies, Atlantic, and Quebec experienced significant year- over-year increases in revenues over February 2020. With COVID restrictions still in effect in most of the country, the assump- tion can be made that these increases continue to be due to early membership and package sales reflecting golf’s increased popularity in 2020.
British Columbia rounds and transaction numbers dropped slightly in February while revenues were unchanged suggest-
ing that the average sale per transaction may have increased in February 2021. Ontario experienced a slight increase in revenues over 2020 while transaction numbers were significantly lower which also suggests an increase to average sale per transaction value in Ontario for February 2021.
Alberta experienced a slight drop in revenues over 2020 likely due to continued COVID-19 measures restricting indoor activities, dining, and the closure of simulators for recreational use.
