Hayden, the organiser at Akarana Golf Club, has a quick note for the sports community. Just a heads up about what’s on offer at the club, nestled in the charming Mt Roskill area of Auckland.
Akarana Golf Club is rolling out the greens and the reds for all golfers, whether you’re a member or just popping in for a visit. The course, par 71, is a good mix of tricky and cruisey holes, making it a sweet spot for players at any level.
Now, let’s talk numbers. If you're just visiting, green fees are $105 no matter the day, but if you’re tagging along with a member, it’s $60. Juniors under 20 get a sweet deal too, with affiliated ones paying only $20 for 18 holes and $15 for a 9-hole round.
Got to dress the part though – the club's got a dress code. Recognised golf get-up is the go, and soft spike golf shoes or flat-soled trainers are a must.
The club’s got you covered with facilities too. You can snag a golf cart for $50, hire clubs and a trundler for $40, or just a trundler for $5. And if you’ve got a green fee voucher, you can use it weekdays or after 3 pm on Saturdays and after 12:30 pm on Sundays.
Booking a tee time is a doddle, either online on the club’s site or by giving the pro shop a ring. The knowledgeable crew there can also help you out with gear and bookings.
Hayden reckons whether you’re a pro or just starting out, Akarana Golf Club is the spot for a grand day out on the greens. Stunning scenery, primo course, and top-notch facilities – all in the heart of Auckland. Pop by and have a round!
