"We have a lot of work to do to help them reach their full potential but we are off to a great start."

Polo Trace Partners With IGM

In less than 5 months, International Golf Maintenance (IGM) has helped restore Polo Trace Golf Course as one of the premier daily fee courses in South Florida.  The management at Polo Trace was very optimistic about the improvements IGM proposed when the partnership started in October of 2013, but everyone is genuinely surprised by how quickly the course has responded to the new programs.

 

"Choosing IGM proved to be a smart move," explained John Bianco, General Manager at the Delray Beach, FL facility.  "We had a few other companies interested, but IGM's depth of industry knowledge and track record spoke volumes. We have already seen an improvement in our turf grass quality and their business acumen is having a positive effect on the bottom line as well."

 

"Polo Trace is one of the premier daily fee golf courses in Southeast Florida. We know the members & guests at Polo Trace have high expectations and we look forward to continuing the improvement of the playing conditions at the course", said Greg Plotner, Executive Vice President for IGM. "We are pleased and honored to have been selected by Polo Trace Golf Club and look forward to a long relationship."

IGM & Lauderhill GC Team Up for Success

When the city of Lauderhill, FL wanted to make improvements to its municipally owned golf course, they turned to the experts at IGM for help.

 

”We have a great short course, perfect for seniors and juniors looking to have fun or work on their game,” explained Scott Newton, Assistant Director for the City Parks Department. “We needed  some help to ensure our residents and area golfers would feel like they were getting a good value at Lauderhill. The changes in the conditions since IGM came in have been amazing. Our rounds are up and we are hearing lots of positive feedback from our guests.”

Greg Plotner, Executive Vice President for IGM is excited about the partnership, “Lauderhill’s golf course is an example of how a golf facility can be successful without chasing the 7,000 yard championship mentality. We know the key for our success at the course is to make sure the players have a great time in a relaxed atmosphere. We got in here and went right to work and it has been a smooth transformation. We are proud to be a part of the community and we look forward to a long relationship with the City of Lauderhill.”

“We are really happy with the progress thus far,” said Newton. “More people need to come out and see this place. It is a hidden jewel.”
