Bonnie Doon Golf Club

Women's Golf

Women's Golf at Bonnie Doon

Bonnie Doon Golf Club was founded on September 29, 1897 and is the 3rd oldest club in the Sydney Metropolitan area. On the 21st February, 1898 ladies were invited to play on the course and four months later were admitted to the club as members, however play for associates was barred on Saturday, Sundays and public holidays.
Bonnie Doon Associates have come a long way since then and Ladies now have the option of becoming associate or full members and indeed are able to play any time (with the exception of the men's competition tee times).
The "Business Girls of Bonnie Doon" was founded in 1949 and are still strongly supported with allocated tee times every Sunday morning for weekly competition rounds and participation in metropolitan inter- club events.
The ladies at Bonnie Doon maintain their enthusiasm for golf and throughout the golfing year support both community and women's charities via our "special event" charity golf days with places in the field highly sort after.


  

Women's Membership

Bonnie Doon Golf Club is a private golf club, however the public are welcome to play the course on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. An open competition is also available to members of other golf clubs on Monday mornings from 8.30am to 12.30pm. Green fees are applicable.
The main competition days for Women are Tuesday and Sunday with an additional ball competition Friday morning when the option of playing in either an 8 or 18 hole ball competition is offered.
The course is a challenging but fair championship golf course and provides practice facilities including a full length driving range, chipping green and two putting greens.

This year the ladies will trial a "Drop Out Stableford? (DOS) concept, for Women's Competition Stroke rounds.  Several clubs in the Metropolitan area have adopted this concept and Bonnie Doon Women's Golf would like to follow suit. This trial applies to ladies playing in Bonnie Doon Women's competitions only.


  "Drop Out Stableford (DOS) is a concept whereby if you experience a "bad" score on a hole during a Competition Stroke round, (including GNSW and Club Medal Rounds), which could result in a "No Score - Not approved" entry into Golflink, you may adopt a Stableford score for your round.
