Billy Casper Golf Earns Extension to Manage Stonebridge Golf Club (Rome, GA)

(RESTON, VA) – The City of Rome (GA) has unanimously voted to extend its partnership with Billy Casper Golf (BCG) for the company to manage Stonebridge Golf Club, one of Golf Digest’s “Top 10 Golf Courses in America Under $55.”

Under BCG management since 2003, innovative programs and special events helped increase annual revenues by nearly 20%. Unique to the area, Stonebridge’s Player Development Program that features free range balls and discounted rates is drawing new golfers by the thousands. Weekly leagues, couples and ladies nights, the Fed-Ex Cup-style “Stonebridge Cup,” and a new junior membership complementing the several popular offerings also contribute to the club’s record satisfaction rating and reputation as the main hot spot for all things golf.

“Billy Casper Golf has created the ultimate, family-friendly atmosphere by relentlessly pushing the bar in service standards,” says Sammy Rich, City Manager of Rome. “Here’s to another prosperous decade of families enjoying the best golf experience in the area.”

“Our work is never done at Stonebridge Golf Club,” says Tony Cianci, Senior Vice President of BCG. “Together with the City, we are investing in this amazing facility to be home to countless, wonderful memories for generations to come.”

City-led projects with contributions from BCG have greatly enhanced Stonebridge’s course conditions.  A complete conversion of greens to Champion Bermuda grass has produced the super-smooth putting surfaces while extensive bunker renovations amplified playability and overall appeal.

Stonebridge also introduced FootGolf to rave reviews in 2015.  The widely popular golf-soccer hybrid attracted new audiences and created meaningful incremental income for the course.
