Sharon Smurfit!
Embracing her passion for sports, she embarked on a journey into the world of golf in her 30s. Every game brings challenges and Sharon loves a challenge. Going from a 36 handicapper to 10 in a short time, not only did the game interest Sharon, but the golf industry as a whole did too. With that, Sharon joined The K Club where she learnt that this industry was for her. She got to meet people, work with members and committees and dealing with teams of employees.
Sharon embarked on the path of education with the CMAE (Club Managers Association of Europe) where she obtained her Club Managers Diploma. “Pretty good for someone who never went to college” says Sharon!
Now, Sharon is on a mission to help Clubs that may have no manager and guide them for short periods of time to seek the best the club can offer. She is also passionate about informing golfers about what is happening in the golf world. Join her newsletter now here and her Facebook group be first to hear about all the news.
