Providing quality and affordable golf and clubhouse facilities in a friendly, family environment since 1949. Corporate Membership, Partnership & Events | Golf Membership | Function Centre | Community Support "Welcoming the Community" Completion of Course Works Project North Ryde Golf Club is fast approaching the end of a major course works project. Not only will the completion of this project alleviate the financial pressure and environmental impact associated with the Club’s current water usage (costing over $100K PA) but the James Wilcher designed course enhancements have pleased our members and will attract golfers from near and far to play the course upon completion of works. Stage 1 of our Dams Project was opened in December 2013. This stage involved the addition of a feature dam (complete with a large fountain & lighting) which is nestled between the 9th & 17th greens. This area is proudly on display for members and guests to enjoy whilst playing the course or when utilising the facilities of the clubhouse. Stage 2 commenced at the end of April this year with construction company Flemming Golf, due to complete construction tasks by the end of next month – October 2014. This chapter has involved major works to install a 16 mega litre dam between our 1st & 2nd greens and the relocation and expansion of what was a small pond on our 4th fairway, to the green’s side / approach to that hole. At the end of the construction period of Stage 2, our Greens staff, headed by our Course Superintendent Ron Duffy, will work with designer James Wilcher, to complete this project. Most holes, with the exception of the 1st & 4th will be reopened by the end of October 2014 and presently, our anticipated ‘official’ opening date encompassing all aspects of the project late in January 2015.

Thornleigh Golf Centre, located in Sydney’s north, is one of the leading golf facilities in Australia with two levels of Golf Driving Ranges. The centre was opened in July 2012. The golf driving range facility has been designed by golfers for golfers and has everything you need to improve your game whether you’re a single marker or a beginner just starting out. Our 15,000 square metres of landing area is synthetically turfed and fully contoured with raised target greens. The contouring ensures the majority of balls return automatically to our hopper room. 20 of our tees on the lower level are fully automated and have proven to be very popular. The Centre is also home to our golf academy. We have a team of qualified PGA golf professionals giving lessons every day of the week. You can ring and book a lesson or just book online. We run a wide range of golf clinics and golf programs for golfers of all levels and ages as well as private lessons. Our passion is to introduce the game of golf to young people and we have close to 100 kids enrolled in this school term’s junior golf clinics! Our two eighteen hole mini golf courses – Palms and Billabong have proven very popular with people of all ages.
