Indooroopilly Golf Club

What Indooroopilly Golf Club does

Indooroopilly Golf Club is a private, member-owned golf club established in 1896 in the Brisbane suburb of Indooroopilly, Queensland, operating two 18-hole championship courses — the East and West layouts — ranked among Australia's top 100 courses. The club serves individual members, social golfers, visitors, and corporate clients, with the latter group anchored by long-tenured relationships including ANZ, Data#3, Scentre Group/Westfield, and the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA). Facilities include a clubhouse, pro shop, food and beverage venues, function and event spaces, and a recently added indoor golf simulator.

Revenue is generated through a diversified mix of membership subscriptions, daily visitor green fees (approximately A$200 per 18 holes), corporate golf days and hospitality packages, retail merchandise, food and beverage, simulator hire, and venue/event hire for concerts and functions. Course conditioning is delivered by a greenkeeping team of around 26, and member administration runs on the MiClub management platform. The club is approaching its centenary milestone (2025–2026) and has recently invested in course and clubhouse upgrades, a simulator facility, and expanded programming including a OneMRI charity day partnership. Operations are member-governed rather than equity-funded, with no public financial disclosure.
