The Golf Course

Waterfront Golf course is located in the heart of South Yorkshire. Set in 170 acres of beautiful established parkland, the course takes in breathtaking views of the surrounding Old Moor Nature Reserve and Manvers Lake.

The stunning nine-hole golf course, designed by international course architect Simon Gidman EIGCA, incorporates 18 different tees, measures over 6,500 yards and is one of the longest of its kind in the UK. With USGA specification greens, strategically placed bunkers and tight fairways, it is a true test of golf.

The course is renowned for being in excellent condition over the winter months, which makes it the perfect elite level training facility for our talented golf scholars.

TrackMan and FlightScope

Golf practice and player development are going through a period of tremendous change and technology is a central component in that transformation. The mapping of swing DNA is now possible, as is the quantification and comparison of swing feel vs. real.

Technology also empowers us to monitor granular swing changes over time. These are just a few, examples of how to unleash talent more effectively.

With TrackMan 4, you have all the tools to jump ahead, from ground-breaking club and ball tracking golf radar systems to the best performance enhancing software available in the industry today.

Short Game Area

The short game area provides a place to practice your game unlike anywhere else in the surrounding area. This includes a sizeable putting green, bunker practice area and chipping and pitching greens.

The chipping areas allow scholars to play from real grass so that preparation is akin to playing out on the course.

The Range

The state of the art driving range boasts 32 bays (including two cutting-edge teaching and fitting studios and brand new custom putting studio incorporating a Capto putting lab and blast motion), each housing the latest air compressed mats and easy-access ball trays. Our range balls are a yellow, two-piece, 100% compression Srixon balls. The outfield is also fully equipped with chipping nets, flags, greens with exact yardages given in each bay for every target.
