Ballarat Golf Club
Ballarat Golf Club
Until it moved to a partially new course in 2008, Ballarat Golf Club was Australia's oldest 18 hole club on its original site, as other golf courses founded before Ballarat moved to other locations during their history. A small portion of the original course (near the old third hole) has been retained in the new 2008 course so it could still be claimed as Australia's oldest course on part of the original course.
The Club was founded on Thursday 11 April 1895 at a meeting attended by just two people - ardent Scottish nationalist Thomas Drummond Wanliss, first president and John Corbett, first secretary.
Ballarat Golf Course today is an 18 hole championship course designed by Thomson Perrett. It features beautiful landscaped surrounds with a variety of flora, and elegant ornamental waterways.
