A passion for golf and nature:
For many years, we have specialised in recovering lost golf balls from water hazards free of charge and offering golf courses attractive remuneration options for doing so. This simple and effective concept is already used by over 160 golf courses.
However, with growing experience, it became increasingly clear that many water bodies on golf courses are in less than optimal condition. Silting, oxygen depletion and algae growth not only affect the appearance, but also the ecological function and infrastructure of the course.
That is why we have specifically expanded our range of services:
What began with the recovery of lost golf balls has developed into a professional and sustainable specialist service provider for golf courses.
Under the name GCLS Europe, we now combine free golf ball recovery with modern, ecological water management and develop individual concepts for healthy, clean and attractive water bodies – financially supported by recovered golf balls.
As an official partner of the Golf Management Association of Germany (GMVD) and the Greenkeeper Association of Germany (GVD), we stand for professional cooperation, the highest standards and long-term solutions.
Our approach follows a clear idea: cleverly combining economic benefits and ecological responsibility.
Our divers – professionals with a special commitment
Recovering golf balls sounds easy – but it isn’t. Our golf ball divers often work for hours in complete darkness, searching blindly underwater. In summer, they wear dry suits in the heat; in winter, they might work under a closed ice cover.
Every dive is a physical challenge and requires the utmost precision, concentration and extensive experience with the special characteristics of golf course waters.
Their professional commitment ensures that millions of golf balls can be safely recovered and recycled in a resource-efficient manner.
Whether you simply want to take advantage of the remuneration options offered by golf ball recovery or implement a water concept subsidised by golf balls – it always starts with a free diving operation and a visit from the golf ball divers.
Because only when we know what lies beneath the surface can we work together to unlock the full potential of your waters.
