DIANELLA GOLF CLUB, A SHORT HISTORY
In 1969 a group of mainly Dianella residents who regularly played darts and pool at their local drinking establishment, decided to extend their activities to golf. They commenced playing socially at the Rosehill Public Golf Course and as their number increased, a more formal competition was introduced.
By the end of 1970 the first President had been elected and for presentations and after match drinks, a club room erected. The Dianella Golf Club (DGC) was incorporated in February 1975. The Club affiliated with the Western Australian Golf League (WAGL) and has won numerous Pennant Flags over the years, the most recent being the 5th Division Pennants in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2006.
CURRENT STATUS
The Dianella Golf Club still has Rosehill Public Golf Course as it’s home course. Being in South Guildford, this venue is conveniently located for residents of Gidgegannup and nearby hills areas.
