 Founded in 1863, the Pietersburg Golf Club was virtually a desert. However, as the years progressed, so did the course, and it is now rated one of the best with 700 members and bent grass greens.
The new club house was completed in 1996 and boasts an excellent halfway house, changerooms, braai area and function hall. The bar creates its own atmosphere, where once inside you just dont want to go home.
The club is very proud to have Retief Goosen, 2001 U.S. Open Champion as a previous club professional. Other notables include Callie Swart and veteran Ray Earle who have both achieved Springbuck colours.
If it's a round of golf or a relaxing drink around the pool or maybe even a Sunday braai your after, the Pietersburg Golf Club caters for your every need.

Physical Address
Voortrekker Street
Polokwane
Limpopo
South Africa
The Voortrekkers under the leadership of Andries Potgieter founded the town on the farm Sterkloop in 1884 providing 150 erven covering 2 200 morgen. The city has enjoyed a long history of prosperity and has grown rapidly given its proximity to Gauteng and the rich agricultural district surrounding it.
The town of Polokwane earned city status on 23 April 1992 and is now the major centre and capital city of the province, indeed for the country's entire area north of Gauteng.
 The city holds an enviable position. Its proximity as a major centre near the neighbouring countries of Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland make it a strategically located, fully equipped destination, and it is within convenient distance from the Kruger National Park and Magoesbaskloof.
Polokwane boasts excellent accommodation, fine weather and a busy, friendly population, making it the ideal business or getaway destination in the geographic and economic heart of the Limpopo Province.
