Welcome To The Tankersley Park Golf Club App

A warm welcome from our staff and members. Tankersley Park Golf Club boasts a modern, well-equipped clubhouse and a beautifully manicured golf course. Casual visitors, small parties, societies and experienced golfers will appreciate this course and be treated as members for the day. Tankerlsey Park Golf Club covers a tract of land with a fascinating and varied history.

In the past few centuries it has been an oak forest, a civil war battlefield, a baronial deer park, a coal and ironstone mining area, and even a battle-tank testing ground.

Tankersley Park Golf Course was opened in 1907 and was extended to eighteen holes in 1924. It then developed under the expert supervision of Arthur Storey, Golf Professional, Course Designer, Green keeper and Golfing Guru. On a few acres of redundant mining spoil and moorland he laid the foundations of a wonderful test of accurate iron play. The careless golfer, who strays from the now beautifully manicured fairways, can still find the remnants of the land’s industrial past. Some forty barrow like mounds left behind in Georgian and Victorian times by bell pit miners digging for coal and ironstone, litter the course. The relatively poor turf found atop these mounds struggles to gain a foothold in the slack and slag left behind by these pioneers of the Yorkshire coal and steel industry. Much of the wonder of this course is that someone could have plotted a route through these obstacles to build the testing holes that now occupy the landscape.

The app features the Whole in One Golf GPS Range Finder and Digital Guide to playing the clubs 18 hole golf course. The App works as an virtual aid, giving you a 3D Flyover of each hole, a pin positioning system.

THE ULTIMATE TOOL FOR THE ENTHUSIASTIC GOLFER.
