Ladies, Get SwingFit at Moore Park with a Group of your Best Gal Pals!

Long gone are the days where the game of Golf was a male dominated sport. Like everything it has evolved, and one of the biggest changes the sport saw in its time was its inclusion of women. Some, whose skill and determination have led to them taking their place in history on the green.

Women had a key role in the original establishment of the game of ‘golf’ with Mary, Queen of Scots commissioning the building of St Andrews Golf course, now acknowledged by most as the birthplace of golf.

Whilst golf unfortunately was a factor that contributed to her beheading, today women can rest easy know that playing golf won’t lead to the same outcome! Today female golfers are acknowledged in most top clubs and women’s championships are every bit as thrilling as the men’s!

There are few rules that exclude women in the game today, although, traditional golf etiquette still dictates that women must wait for men to go ahead during the game. At Moore Park, that’s not the case! A place synonymous with the sport of golf for more than 130 years, and recognised as the location of Australia’s first golf club, Moore Park Golf is proud to be one of the only clubs in the country where women do not have to wait for the men.
