  • Every golf club member is able to obtain an official golf handicap. This cost is incorporated into your membership as a levy to NZ Golf who administer this service.
  • As a golf club member you get cheaper green fee rates all over the country. For example our club green fees are $30 for NZ golf club members and $60 for non NZ golf club members. If you are playing regularly this soon adds up.

  • Perhaps the biggest advantage of all is you can get regular exercise, fresh air and enjoment from playing golf nearly eveyday of the year, if you want. All on a scenic parklike course within the city boundary, where parking is free, the grass is mown for you everyday, and you can escape the hustle and bustle of city life - almost like having a large extension put on to your backyard.
