His boyhood days at the golf course felt more than a hobby; it was a calling. This spark ignited a successful junior golfing stint, only to be followed by a pivot into the sales and relationship management landscape.
For over two decades, Ged has been an unstoppable force in the business arena, expanding his network, leading formidable teams, and always with a golf club within arm's reach. Holding a low single-digit handicap, the game has not just been a pastime for him but a door-opener to countless opportunities.
Now, in the most exhilarating turn yet, Ged presents the DBLCRS Sim Lounge. More than a venture, it's a culmination of his twin passions: golf and technology. Backed by the unwavering faith of his close-knit team, Ged is thrilled to usher in an unparalleled simulator golf experience. This isn't just about the game—it's about community, technology, and his deep-rooted love for Guelph.

Matt@dblcrs.ca
Matt, a native of Peterborough, Ontario, developed a passion for golf at the tender age of two. His father and grandfather mentored him to grip the club and swing with force into neighbouring backyards. He has since travelled North America, participating in numerous amateur and professional tournaments. At 25, Matt realized his passion for golf had shifted, and he was more interested in helping golfers achieve their objectives. Consequently, he pursued a career with the PGA of Canada.
Matt started teaching in Victoria, British Columbia, in 2010, where he found himself drawn to learning more about golf biomechanics. He later moved to the Credit Valley Golf & Country Club in Mississauga, where he honed his skills to take on a full-time role as a teaching professional. During his eight-year tenure at The Club atNorth Halton, he grew his client base to over 500 students and successfully managed all teaching programs inclusive of junior programs, ranging from camps to competitive teams. Seeking further growth opportunities, Matt transitioned to the management side of golf, taking up his most recent position at Westmount Golf and Country Club. Rediscovering his passion for teaching, Matt decided to become "This Guy" for DBL CRS Sim Lounge. This move allowed him to focus more on helping people improve their golf games.
Having learned from experienced professionals in the industry, Matt has become most interested in biomechanics and understanding each student's capabilities. He formulates plans based on their body's abilities, limitations, and goals to facilitate their success in golf.
how it started
DBLCRS started as an idea while in the hot tub of making some funny t-shirts and hoodies. Who knew that 3 years later we would be here.
DBLCRS was always about being a bit different. The first t-shirts and hoodies we did had sayings on it like ‘Sandbagger City’, ‘Good Good’, ‘Laying Up’ on them. We wanted to make fun shirts for people to wear. We ventured in to golf polos in 2021 and went through the process of an overseas manufacturer. It was a fun experience but we always new there was more out there for the brand.
In November 2022, a small team of us started putting together the pieces of what DBLCRS could be as a full blown Golf Simulator. Over the past several months the priority has always been the same. How can we bring something to the Guelph Golf Community that embraces what we love about the game but also welcomes new comers to the game and screams inclusivity. Our focus is and will always remain to only support local Guelph business and do our best to lift those up that are around us.
Our goal is to be the place where Guelph and golf connect. Where you can stop by and grab a pint, or meet up with friends in the off season to keep the game sharp. Where you can go and try golf for the first time without fear of judgement. All are welcome. Welcome to DBLCRS Sim Lounge!
