After Paul Gibbons sold his business interests, he created the Leaderboard brand and negotiated the purchase of Chart Hills Golf Club.[1]

The golf course at Chart Hills was designed by English golf player Nick Faldo and Steve Smyers.[2]

As with other Leaderboard owned courses, Chart Hills regularly plays host to high profile golfing events. It is a European Tour Qualifying School venue and has hosted the Ladies European Tour event, the Ladies English Open.[3]

Chart Hills is considered to be 33rd in England on the "top 100 golf courses" ranking website.[2]
