Mimosa Plus Becomes First GEO-Certified Golf Course in PHL

Mimosa Plus Golf Course in Clark, Pampanga has become the first course in the Philippines to achieve a GEO Certified® status. 

The award-winning golf destination with two 18-hole, par 72 courses was recognized by the GEO Foundation for Sustainable Golf for its enduring dedication to environmental stewardship, climate action, and community value for everyone. 

The GEO Certification is also a triumph for Philippine golf as the label is considered the sport’s most credible and widely endorsed international certification available for golf facility operations, new golf developments and tournament staging. 

“It’s important to remember that golf and the environment should coexist harmoniously,” Mimosa Plus Golf Course director Rory Young said. 

“To become GEO Certified is like a gold medal for all the green champions at Mimosa Plus who worked tirelessly to make sure the golf course is ahead when it comes to sustainable practices,” he added.
