As one of the few sports which has been able to be played consistently through the pandemic, hundreds of players are teeing off each week.

Club captain Josh Stapleton said the surge in player numbers had put the club in a good position to improve their facilities and services but also run programs and competitions to retain players.

While COVID-19 had played a role in the growth of players, Stapleton said juniors and ladies clinics which started under the guidance of the club's professional, Brad Wright, would also help attract new members and players.

So far the junior clinics were attracting up to 25 to 30 players on average.

Thirty-one women joined in a ladies' clinic supported by Golf NSW called 'Her Sport, Her Way' and Stapleton said the club was also running their own six week golf clinic for women led by Wright has filled its first class and a second is expected to open.

Meanwhile, competitive players regularly reach the hundreds for the first weekend in October, 210 players handed in theirs scores

"It's been a long time since we've seen consistent fields of 100 players," he said.

Stapleton said Club Championships and daylight savings tournament were seeing strong numbers of entries which would help support the club's future.

He said any money that the club made went back into improving the course and clubhouse.

Work began this week on sealing the club's car park and earlier this year they received a government grant to built an amenity block on the course.

With both social and tournament players on the course, Stapleton said the club's golf carts were booked out quickly, but that's set to change as the club grows its fleet of carts from 10 to 16.

"We don't want to see the numbers drop off, we want to have a full sheet every weekend," he said.

"We have one of the best courses in NSW.

"Our plan is to continue and do what we need to do for our members and guests."
