Champions Club

What Champions Club does

Champions Run is a privately held family country club located at 13800 Eagle Run Drive, Omaha, Nebraska, operating a comprehensive recreational and hospitality platform built around an 18-hole championship golf course playing to 7,209 yards from the back tees, designed by Jeff Brauer. The club serves a single primary customer segment — affluent Omaha-area families — through a tiered membership model (Golf and Social), with ancillary revenue from public retail, group outings, banquets, weddings, and corporate events. Facility scope is broad for a single-site regional club: four Har-Tru tennis courts, eight indoor/outdoor pickleball courts in a dedicated Pickleball Performance Center, a junior Olympic-sized aquatics complex home to the Krakens swim team (described as the largest recreational swim team in the country), a fitness center, multiple dining venues (Divot's Grille, The Rough Bar, The Fairway Room), and event spaces accommodating up to 400 guests.

The underlying 'technology' is largely physical asset and credentialed human capital rather than software. Core technical components include the golf course infrastructure (water hazards on nine holes, multiple tee configurations from 5,317 to 7,209 yards, large greens), launch-monitor-based custom club fitting programs, a public-facing golf shop ('Golftique'), and standard website/member-login technology. The most differentiated technical layer is the PGA professional staff: seven (and in some sources eight) PGA-certified professionals on site, multiple Nebraska PGA award winners including Director of Golf Greg Neujahr, Director of Retail Dawn Neujahr, and Director of Instruction Mike Cornell. Year-round junior programs (golf, tennis, swim) and a separate Champions Summer brand site extend the platform across family lifecycles.

Revenue is generated through six disclosed streams: recurring membership dues (primary, pricing undisclosed), golf shop merchandise and custom fitting (open to public), events and banquets (member-sponsored, up to 400 guests), dining across multiple venues, group golf outings ($125/player with 100-player minimum, April-October), and professional golf instruction. A core distribution partnership with ClubCorp provides members access to 100+ affiliated courses with an upgrade path to ClubCorp Signature Gold. The operating model is best characterized as a mature, multi-recreational-amenity private club with modest public-facing retail and event monetization layered on top of a membership base; the business is privately held with no disclosed ownership changes, funding rounds, or external investors, and is led by CEO/General Manager Andy Reetz.
