Chatswood’s new 12-hole course has been designed to offer golfers a wider variety when it comes to playing a round.  Back in 2019, Chatswood Golf Club engaged specialist consultants to review golf industry trends and found that only 4 percent of the Australian population regularly played golf. Interestingly, of the regular golf cohort, 76 percent were over the age of 50 years. This apparent trend, coupled with the Chatswood club’s smaller land area, provided an opportunity for the club to re-assess its traditional approach and envisage a course that may be attractive to the younger demographic, while still catering to traditionalists who favour an 18-hole round.
