Golfers Ditch Baggage Fees as Clubs to Hire Drives Record Bookings Worldwide
Clubs to Hire, the global leader in golf club rental, has announced double-digit booking growth in 2025, driven by a robust performance in 2024 and the continued expansion of its global operations. Celebrating its 15th year in business, the company has achieved record revenues under the leadership of Founder and CEO Tony Judge, reinforcing its position as the market leader in golf travel services.
Operating in 24 premier golf destinations across Europe, Africa, and beyond, Clubs to Hire continues to make international golf travel easier, more affordable, and more sustainable for golfers worldwide.
As airlines continue to increase baggage fees, golfers are turning in record numbers to rental solutions — making club hire a mainstream choice for travelling players.
“Our business has never been stronger,” said Tony Judge, CEO and Founder of Clubs to Hire. “We’re proud to see golfers embracing the convenience and value of club rental, especially as airlines keep escalating baggage prices. With Clubs to Hire, golfers can travel lighter, save money, and still play with top-quality equipment at leading golf destinations.”
Record Growth and Media Recognition
In 2025, Clubs to Hire saw double-digit growth in bookings and reached its highest-ever revenue figures. The company also marked a milestone year of success, with its brand featured extensively across global media platforms — including SKY Golf TV ads, aired during one of the most-watched Ryder Cups in history.
Clubs to Hire’s strong performance and sustained innovation have also earned it a place as a finalist for a major Customer Service business award, to be announced in December 2025. The recognition reflects its entrepreneurial spirit and ongoing commitment to service excellence.
Global Expansion and Future Outlook
The company continues to expand its presence across the world’s top golfing regions, supported by a loyal customer base of over 60,000 active members. It is also in advanced negotiations to finalise a significant commercial partnership deal, which will further enhance its service offering and brand reach.
Looking ahead to 2026, Clubs to Hire plans to continue investing in its technology infrastructure, customer experience, and strategic partnerships, as well as completing several major partner agreements currently in progress.
“Our focus has always been on helping golfers enjoy their trips without the hassle and cost of carrying their own clubs,” added Judge. “We’ve built a trusted brand over 15 years — and as golf tourism continues to grow, we’re ready to lead the next phase of innovation in this space.”
