TRANSFORM MOORE PARK SOUTH INTO A WORLD-CLASS RECREATIONAL FACILITY
Featuring improved community facilities plus a reduced 18-hole public golf course
OUR ALTERNATE PLAN FOR MOORE PARK SOUTH
On October 28th 2025, the NSW Government released its Enablement Plan, which proposes reducing Moore Park Golf Course from 18 holes to 9. We understand that this announcement may cause concern for our community who hold Moore Park Golf close to their hearts.
Please be assured that we are actively engaging with the Government to present a strong case for why maintaining an 18-hole course is the best way forward. We firmly believe that the current Alternate Proposal that we have presented to the Government, provides the best solution to improve the recreational, social, and sporting facilities in Moore Park.
