Our Journey Through the Years

'92

1992

Adlington Golf Range opened on 17th April by David and Sandra Moss as part of a diversification from farming. The official opening was carried out by Sir Norman Wisdom, a passionate golfing enthusiast. From the very beginning, the ethos of the business was to create a welcoming, family-friendly and inclusive environment, breaking away from the stereotypical image of golf as exclusive, expensive, and male dominated.

'95

1995

A small area of land was developed into a 9-hole Pitch & Putt course, later known as the Academy Course. Designed by international golf course architect Martin Hawtree and built to USGA standards, the course, though short in length, was high in quality and became especially popular with families and children, many of whom grew up continuing to play the course as adults.

'98

1998 & 1999

Additional adjoining land was acquired to create the Graduate Course, another Hawtree design. This Par 3 course became the natural progression from the Academy Course. It also appealed to older players who found full-length courses challenging, as well as to busy golfers looking for a quality round that could be completed in just 90 minutes.

'15

2015

The year 2015 brought new challenges when plans for the Poynton Relief Road threatened the Graduate Course. Fortunately, the land acquired in 1998 provided the perfect opportunity for relocation. Once again, Martin Hawtree was commissioned to design the new course on more attractive terrain with beautiful topography and vistas.

'20

2020

In July 2020, after the first lockdown, the Heritage Course opened and was met with instant success. Sadly, later that year the Graduate Course closed to make way for the road project, but it lives on virtually through Trackman golf simulators.

2024

Australia Arrives in Cheshire!
