New South Australian Golf Course creates 150 employment opportunities

There’s nothing I love seeing more in my profession than a win for the Australian golfing industry.

A 425-hectare site at Nora Creina, just 15 kilometres south of Robe in South Australia, is set to become a mega hub for golfers and tourists alike, with the development of a highly accredited course in the works

The two 18-hole links-style golf courses, which boast a clubhouse, accommodation, a cellar door, a wellness centre, a wagyu beef farm and an Aboriginal Heritage education centre, is not only going to pump an estimated $17.5 million back into the state’s economy but also generate 150 full times job opportunities.

The development of a project of this calibre, in my opinion, is going to give the Australian golfing industry the push it deserves, where our courses that aren’t in major tourism destinations, will be viewed at an international standard.

Project developer, Justin Scanlon, has been quoted in media resources saying the project at Nora Creina has been in the pipelines since 2008, but has only recently received the financial commitment and approval from the State Government it needed.

I tip my hat off to Mr Scanlon. He had a vision, saw the opportunity and stuck to instincts to create a project that will boost the region itself, tourism numbers and the image of Australia golf. I’m certainly looking forward to seeing the finished product and economic boom it will bring to South Australian golf.
