Walkley Golf was founded in August 2012 to provide Armidale Golf Club and the surrounding areas with a complete golfing service that includes club fitting and sales, expert golf coaching and a general good all-round knowledge of the game.

Owner and golf professional Andrew Walkley was awarded the NSW/ACT PGA Teaching Professional of the Year in 2016.

Andrew is also an expert club fitter and carries a range of leading brands including PING, Titleist, Callaway and Taylor Made.

Armidale Golf Club’s junior program that includes six-year-old MyGolf Australia junior ambassador, Isaac Riches, has just started on Friday afternoons. During these sessions Andrew hopes to encourage a new generation of keen golfers.

Rounds have been played on the greens of Port Macquarie Golf Club for more than 100 years.

The course continues to take steps towards improvement, with course architect Richard Chamberlain recently embarking on a series of tweaks to the already testing layout.

The club holds a number of events to encourage keen golfers of all ages and abilities, with the annual seaside classic week in August the pinnacle.

Throughout the week there are opportunities for small groups to plan a weekend away and fit in a game of golf.
