Futures Event Series - Pleasant Point
After a little break, the Futures schedule is set to pick back up across May and June. For term two, we have FOUR events at Pleasant Point Golf Club, Ashburton Golf Club, Timaru Golf Club and Temuka Golf Club!
All formats resume with:
- Futures Team Golf – a six hole team golf format where kids pair up and tackle the course together (perfect for our entry level kids)
- Futures 9 Purple – an individual, nine-hole experience where kids tackle the course by themselves from the forward tees with scores being recorded and ultimately helping towards their first handicap
- Futures 9 Yellow – an individual, nine-hole experience from the yellow tees, for the more advanced players who likely already have a handicap.
We will also have Family Team Golf. An event where mum, dad, nana, grandad, uncle, auntie etc can play and join in too! These family team golf events will be at Temuka and Timaru and have a separate registration link...

Pleasant Point Golf Club
The Pleasant Point Club boast a picturesque course close to the township of Pleasant Point and bordered by lush farmland, council reserves, deer park and residential houses. The course is in South Canterbury, 20 minutes west of Timaru. The golfer friendly terrain makes it a comfortable walk for all ages and carts and buggies also navigate the course with ease. Our full time Green Keeper and a small army of volunteers ensure our course is always in great condition. Excellent 18 hole irrigation and drainage systems make for great year round golfing conditions for players of all abilities.

The Pleasant Point Golf course is divided in to two distinct areas. The first 9 holes is in the Pleasant Point Domain and is surrounded by mature trees. The current clubhouse was built, sheds and car park added. The second 9 has a delightful spring fed creek running through it which offers a unique challenge to golfers.
The club changed the greens to sand based greens a couple of years ago and this has enhanced the quality of them. The well maintained fairway irrigated helps to keep up the standard all year round.
