Richmond Golf Club is about an hour north west of Sydney CBD in the Hawkesbury District. It is located in the heart of historic town of Richmond and one of NSW’s best kept secrets. The course has the stunning backdrop of the Blue Mountains.
The golf club caters to all types of social golf, casual social play, social clubs, and charity days. It offers a range of corporate services. One of the oldest golf courses in NSW, Richmond Golf Club has had time to mature into a lush, very challenging course. The 18 hole layout measures 5510 metres and has a par of 70.
The club takes pride in its long history which dates back from October 1897 when golf was first played on the Hawkesbury Agricultural College paddocks. Marcia Yates, President of the Associate Members in 1986 compiled a ‘Brief History of Richmond Golf Club.’
A meeting was held at the School of Arts on Wednesday, 15 March 1899 at 4:00pm to form a golf club, establishing rules, fees, officers, property, etc. Richmond is believed to be the oldest golf club on its original site in Australia.
While in town, enjoy the historic sites, such as the numerous homes, churches, cemeteries, and commercial buildings. Relax in historic Richmond Park’s pavilion built in 1883-84.
Competition, social and corporate play offered 7 days a week; all required equipment is also available for hire.
