Easts Leisure and Golf unveils $5m upgrade

POSTED ON August 10, 2024 @ 12:24 pm

East Maitland Bowling Club has unveiled the new-look East Leisure and Golf clubhouse following nearly a year of extensive renovations.

The clubhouse boasts not just one deck but three new indoor-outdoor terraces offering different views of the lush fairways and surrounding landscapes.

In response to the growing demand for family-friendly amenities, the clubhouse also features an indoor kids’ area and upgraded parents room.

“The way you see golf televised on TV, it’s a lot different to what it was. It’s bringing in a younger demographic,” Club Manager Scott Driffield said.

“We’re also seeing other forms of golf such as driving ranges and simulators, which have been really heavily marketed, and it’s great.”

The function spaces, and bar and lounge area were also upgraded. Plus new dart boards and pool table were added.

“We tried to be functional as well as decorative. The improvements we’ve made … they’ve all been well received,” Driffield said.

While the major upgrades are now completed, Driffield hinted there’ll be more to come.

“We hope from a technology perspective we’ll be looking at other things to help with service that we can now do based on the renovations.”
