The Ridge Golf Course

The Ridge Golf Course, located at Barden Ridge, opened its first nine holes on Saturday 30 May 2009.

The nine-hole championship standard course is owned by Sutherland Shire Council. A further nine holes are under development now and a new purpose-built clubhouse is also proposed for the Ridge Sports Complex.

Temporary facilities are in place housing a golf pro shop and starters area.
