Moore Park Golf Club

Overview: Moore Park Golf Club is a public 18-hole course in the Centennial Parklands, close to Sydney's CBD, sporting precinct and eastern suburbs. The course is par 70 and makes a full round available in one of Australia's most urban golf settings. Trees, parkland corridors, water and the surrounding city create a lively backdrop, while the routing still rewards a player who finds fairways and approaches the greens from the right side.

History: Moore Park opened in 1913 and is recognised as the first public access course in New South Wales. Eric Apperly redesigned the layout in 1937 and was involved again after World War II, helping shape the course that evolved through the parklands. That history gives the venue a special role in Sydney golf: it is both a working public course and part of the city's recreation infrastructure.

Did You Know? Moore Park's location means a golfer can move from the course to major Sydney attractions within minutes. The urban setting is not a distraction from the golf. It is part of the course's identity, and the 1913 opening gives the city landscape a direct link to the early history of public golf in New South Wales.
