This is a big golf facility of 27 holes that is soon to begin some changes to the site by golf course architects KruseGolf and Clayton DeVries Pont (CDP) working together as part of the clubs forward vision.Darcy was introduced to golf where he grew up as a young kid in south western NSW and upon his family moving to the NSW South Coast, he soon became more interested in the game and where he became an apprentice greenkeeper working with his twin brother.Upon completing his apprenticeship Darcy was soon looking for something more and he would find his way to Wimbledon in London, England! After working for a time in the UK, Darcy headed back to Australia and landed a role at Royal Melbourne Golf Club.I won't share anymore other than to say that Darcy has experienced a great deal in his career all the way to becoming Superintendent at Catalina Club, and I'm sure you'll enjoy his story along with learning a few things about Catalina Club and it's very bright future ahead. It's time to kick back and enjoy this chat and maybe even plan your next golf trip to the south coast of NSW.You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - ⁠⁠thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.com⁠⁠People and places mentioned in this podcast:Catalina ClubKruseGolfClayton DeVries Pont (CDP)CluBarham GolfNarooma Golf ClubBermagui Country ClubAll England Lawn Tennis & Croquet ClubRoyal Wimbledon Golf ClubTura Beach Country ClubRoyal Canberra Golf ClubRoyal Melbourne Golf ClubSandy Golf LinksVictoria Golf ClubOCM Golf DesignThe Dunes Golf LinksSt. Andrews Beach Golf Course13th Beach Golf LinksLonsdale LinksNSW Golf ClubRoyal Sydney Golf ClubKillara Golf ClubEP.95 Keeper of the Greens - Richard ForsythEP.70 Keeper of the Greens - Pat WilsonEP.111 Keeper of the Greens - Josh SmithEP.159 Keeper of the Greens - Adam MarchantEP.135 Steve's Random Special Guest - Mike O'Keeffe
