This course is short but on the improve thanks to the new green staff and management. It is where I learnt how to play golf in the Fairfield RSL Diggers Junior golf club over 16 years ago. A great course for beginners to learn the game as there are not may water hazards and only a handful of bunkers. The hardest holes are probably the par 4’s 2nd, 11th and 14th but the rest of the holes are short. In fact there are 5 par 4’s that are less than 250m long. reasonable value for money but for a bigger test in the area, you would take Cabramatta every time.
PROS
- Affordable, easy course for beginners
Cons
- Short, slow greens and hard fairways, little challenge for better golfers

A good course to play with the kids. typical overused public ex-council run golf course..but improving with new set up. usually pretty busy so be prepared for a wait at the tee box or on the course.

Reasonably cheap course. Fairways are usually very dry and not the best going around. Short par 4s which are easily driveable with a 5 wood, small greens. Lots of trees lining every fairway – if your ball doesn’t strike one during the round your either Tiger Woods or working a miracle.
Usually lots of heavy strugglers out there, beware of balls whistling past your head at all times. Good for a hit with some mates and some beers, but thats about it.

This course is slowly getting better. Currently under new management the course is set to change largely. Fairways are good but greens are lacking a little speed.

Measuring a 4672 metres Par 69 with an ACR of 67, has four par 3s ranging from 110-200 metres, a lonely Par 5 measuring 450 metres and 13 Par 4s ranging from 225-360 metres.
Quite a basic course with thin-covered fairways no different to a rugby field surface, with tiny elevated greens, with no bunkers protecting greens, makes driving these par 4 greens quite easy. No real challenges on the course, but your patience with your own game. After all the rain over the Sydney basin last week, youíd think the fairways would be lush, but they were not. Signature hole: 12th dogleg to the right over a slight gully.
Played here on 28/11/05 and paid $15 for 18 holes (Monday) and costs $20 for a cart (watch those tree-lined fairways!). Course could do with a map on the scorecard, as there are no signs such as ìto 18th tee this wayî. That said the layout is simple, but boring. Good value, but not really worth it. Pay the extra money and play at Cabramatta GC.

$15 on a weekday is definitely one of the cheapest in Sydney. The fairways are quite worn out but the greens aren't too bad and fairly consistent. The course is quite forgiving and is fairly short with several par 4's that can be reached off the tee.

I recently played on this course on a weekend because it is close to my home and soon rwalised why I havent played there since I was 14. The greens are full of unrepaired pitch marks, the fairways are nothing more than a cow paddock and you are constantly threatened by the stray golf ball whistling by your ear due to the endless amount of retards that play on this course. Don't waste your time or money.

This G.C. is brilliant for beginners. Layout is easy to follow, as is the distance. A bit generous to have a Par of 69 as quite a few Par 4' are attainable from the tee. Front 9 is kept in good condition. However through saying this. It is a great course for beginners who are looking for the odd game with mates, or working on various aspects of their game.

This course is good for beginner, improve alot to compare with several year ago. Good and friendly staff. Course is short but has nice greens. Need to have more bunkers and remove all rubbish along hold 10 and 11.
Need to have more grass on fairways, specially back nine holes.
