19 NSW Golf Clubs Secure Government Grants for Major Upgrades

POSTED ON August 8, 2025 @ 12:19 pm

Golf facilities across New South Wales are set for sustainability, safety, and community-focused improvements

Nineteen golf clubs across New South Wales are preparing to break ground on vital infrastructure upgrades after receiving significant funding through the latest round of the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership Program.

Announced on Monday, August 4th, by NSW Minister for Sport and Minister for Small Business, Steve Kamper, the grants will support a wide range of projects,  from stormwater drainage and solar installations to clubhouse renovations and the creation of more inclusive, multi-use spaces.

“The Community Building Partnership program delivers real benefits for local communities,” Minister Kamper said. “This funding will support vital upgrades across 19 golf clubs — from stormwater drainage and solar panels to improved shared facilities. These projects will strengthen community connection and deliver positive social and recreational outcomes.”

The funding is part of the NSW Government’s ongoing investment in shovel-ready infrastructure projects that promote sustainability, accessibility, and greater community participation.

Golf NSW CEO Stuart Fraser welcomed the news, saying the upgrades will have a meaningful impact on the long-term viability and appeal of local clubs.

“The works to be undertaken by the successful clubs not only assist in improving their facilities but also help the sport grow through better access for all,” Fraser said. “Without the assistance of the NSW Government, many of the clubs simply couldn’t complete these sorts of projects.”
