Hero for club staff (7)

I believe the answer is:

ironman

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'hero' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'club staff' is the wordplay.
'club' becomes 'iron' (type of golf club).
'staff' becomes 'man' (as in staffing or manning a particular place).
'iron'+'man'='IRONMAN'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for ironman that I've seen is " Comic book character".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
