Prise d'Eau Golf

What Prise d'Eau Golf does

Prise d'Eau Golf operates a 27-hole championship golf facility plus a dedicated Warande PAR3 course at Gilzerbaan 400 in Tilburg, Netherlands, between Tilburg and Breda along the A58 corridor. The complex includes a large driving range with a covered Toptracer-equipped section, two-sided hitting areas, putting and chipping greens, practice bunkers, and a clubhouse with the Gasterij restaurant operated by third-party Bonheur Horeca Groep. The facility is structured under two legal entities: Prise d'eau Golfbaan B.V. (golf course operator) and Golf Club Prise d'Eau (the member association), with certificate holders holding perpetual play rights through STAK.

The technical stack is built on integrated third-party platforms rather than proprietary systems: TeeControl and Chronogolf for online tee-time booking, Golfdashboard for member portal and handicap management, Parrow for tournament and competition administration, the GOLF.NL official NGF app for digital scorekeeping and handicap updates, and Mailchimp for member newsletters. Operational technology includes a Toptracer interactive practice system at the covered driving range and a SmartTrike autonomous bunker-raking robot scheduled three days per week.

The revenue model combines subscription-based memberships (six age-tiered full club tiers ranging €156-€1,645/year for 2026, plus youth Basis/Plus, PAR3 Club, Special Golf at €293.50/year, and corporate Business Club/Golf BNB/zakelijk speelrecht packages) with usage-based greenfee revenue (visitors), transaction-based food and beverage, lesson revenue from PGA Holland-certified professionals, competition entry fees, and corporate event hosting. Customer segments span individual golfers across all skill levels, corporate/business clients, youth and juniors (~60 children weekly), members with intellectual disabilities in the Special Golf program (~18-19 at near-capacity), and competitive golfers across four NGF Hoofdklasse teams. The Birdie Circle reciprocal network grants members 50% greenfee discounts at 7 partner courses across the Netherlands and Belgium.
