The Brinsmead family originally used the property for sugar cane farming. The driving range was developed in the early 1990s to provide a haven for local golfers to practise their swings. The golf course was subsequently developed in response to the growing demand for the sport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The course (measuring 3,373m) features 18 holes with 18 tees, hundreds of trees, shrubs & native plants to provide a park-like golf links experience with dams, bunkers, mounds & swales. Showcasing manicured fairways and contoured greens with tiff-dwarf grass featured in all greens in the summer and oversown with Poa Trivialis in the winter.<\/p>\n

The course par is 61<\/strong> with a scratch rating of 58 <\/strong>and a slope rating of 70<\/strong> for men and 74<\/strong> for ladies. With a mix of challenging par 3\u2019s and par 4\u2019s, accurate drives and sharp iron shots are the keys to mastering the course. Chinderah Golf Course provides a keen challenge for accomplished players. The absence of hills makes it ideal (as a public golf course) for beginners and social players \u2013 the perfect place to learn and grow your golf game.

A social competition began in 1992 with local Senior players \u2013 men & ladies (over 50\u2019s) playing on Monday mornings. This grew to take in Thursday mornings as well, with numbers of players increasing year on year.<\/p>\n

A new club-house was built in 1998 to replace shipping containers previously used as the proshop\/office.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

With the assistance of the Federal Government, Chinderah Golf Course became the first golf course in Australia to benefit from a scheme utilising town sewerage effluent (from Kingscliff & Chinderah) enabling us to fully water all fairways, greens and the driving range.<\/p>\n
