Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club Overview 2018 Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club Paraparaumu Beach, New Zealand Alex Russell 1949 Situated on the Kapiti Coast, a very pleasant fifty minute drive north of the capital city, Wellington, Paraparaumu Beach enjoys a long held reputation as the premier links course in New Zealand. Paraparaumu Beach has hosted the New Zealand Open championship on twelve occasions as well as numerous prestigious professional and amateur tournaments. “I loved it instantly. We had nothing like it in Australia , which must have struck Alex Russell, who did the layout. Course designing approaches an art form, especially done in a perfect modelling medium like volcanic sand. Russell must have been ecstatic. What was left after his departure was a gem of enjoyment, a monument to the game and a gift to the future. When we all turn to dust, “Paraparaumu” the golf, should be still lying there as it was when the first golfers came by, with Kapiti an off-shore island standing guard to see that no one steals it away. And the winds will ever blow to test the golfer’s will and integrity. Paraparaumu will be famed for a century yet. Peter Thomson – Winner of 9 NZ Opens and 5 time British Open Champion History In 1929 Mr. Malcolm Maclean and his brother Rob who had been farming an area of land at Paraparaumu leased some of land to an enthusiastic bunch of locals for the purposes of a golf course. With 9 holes in play there were plans for expansion to 18 however with the depression starting to bite the Maclean’s decided to sub divide their land and placed the golf course and the neighbouring land between the course and the beach on the market. They interested Mr. S. George Nathan in the project and the latter then formed a small syndicate, which included Mr. Stronach Paterson, Mr. Jack Francis, Mr. H.R. Chalmers and Mr. D.O. Whyte, to purchase the land as a speculation. Some 200 acres of Beach Front was subdivided into seaside sections and the balance of 120 acres formed into an 18 hole golf course as an added attraction to buyers. Course Aerial from 1953. After all the sections had been sold Messrs. Paterson, Francis and Whyte decided to form a Club to take over the Golf Course from the syndicate and ensure the retention of the Golf Course which had become so much of a part of the life of the rapidly growing seaside resort. They succeeded in interesting sufficient golfing enthusiasts and the club was duly formed and incorporated. It was decided to redesign the course entirely and to lay out a modern first class championship course which would be fit to stage the most important golfing events. On the advice of Kiwi Sloan Morpeth (then the Secretary of both the Commonwealth Golf Club and Australian Golf Union), the club secured the services of Mr. Alex Russell of Melbourne, an ex Open Champion of Australia and a one-time design partner of Dr. Alister MacKenzie. Alex Russell’s design credits included Royal Melbourne East, a collaboration on the West with MacKenzie and Mick Morcom, Yarra Yarra and Lake Karrinyup. Having approved the plans, and under the supervision of Mr. Whyte, the course was constructed by Head Greenkeeper Jack Hunt and his staff and ready for opening in 1949. Club founder D.O. Whyte (left) inspecting progress of the new links with Head Greenkeeper Jack Hunt In the years that proceeded, Paraparaumu Beach went on to host many of the country’s leading golf tournaments including 12 New Zealand Opens and 4 New Zealand Amateurs. It has ranked as high as 71 by magazine U.S. Golf Magazine’s world rankings of golf courses and has unquestionably become as its founders had hoped, a real asset to the game in New Zealand. “Paraparaumu Beach is a great example of how intelligent design on appropriate terrain can remain relevant in spite of technological advances. With the fescues revived and the ball "alive" when it lands, once again the links shows that the interest and intrigue associated with its counterparts in the British Isles is alive and well on the Kapiti Coast.” Greg Turner – New Zealand Open Winner 1989, 1997 Golf Course Initially 9 Holes were constructed in 1929. Expanded to 18 in 1937 and then completely redesigned to the current layout by Alex Russell in 1949. A Par 71, the course measures 6050m from its tips. 5th Hole Par 3, 155m. “After more than three decades of caddying I rate Paraparaumu Beach very highly and believe it has one of the best groups of par 3’s on any course I have encountered. The par 3 2nd, 5th, 14th and 16th will challenge the best players everytime despite not being long holes like many of the modern day par 3’s.” Steve Williams – Caddy to Tiger Woods, Adam Scott 2010 6th Hole Par 4, 301m “This is a great course……a great, great course” 9 time major champion Gary Player “Difficult holes are not necessarily good holes, but the 13 th is a perfect example of a great hole” World Atlas of Golf “Intriguing, alternative strategic decisions, each with its own reward, mark this as one of the finest half dozen holes in Australian or New Zealand golf” 17 th Hole PBGC - World Atlas of Golf Tournaments New Zealand Opens 1959 NZ Open P.W.

  • Paraparaumu Beach, Otaihanga and Riwai Street Bus Timetables For
    Attachment i Report [=I DRAFT Page 17 of 121 Paraparaumu Beach, Otaihanga and Riwai Street Bus timetables for these areas have not been shown on the website, because we (Regional Council Transport and Mana Coach Services) are planning to introduce completely new routes and services during the course of 2000. The Changes Most current users of buses in the Paraparaumu Beach area will find that the services they use will be better than before. We hope that the improved services will encourage more people to use the buses so that they can be improved further in the future. There will be two simple, more direct routes instead of the difficult-to- understand circuit routes which operate at present. No more wondering which side of the road to stand on for the next bus to Coastlands! There will be more train connections in peak periods, and there will be Sunday services for the first time. All trips will be operated by low-floor buses to improve access for people who have difficulty using steps, and those carrying shopping or pushing children in buggies. Each route will have buses at least every 30 minutes between 6.00am and 8.00pm, Monday to Friday, with extra trips in peak periods to ensure connections with all trains to and from Wellington. The New Routes 71 From Paraparaumu Beach shops via Manly Street, Ngapotiki Street, Te Kupe Road, Mazengarb Road, Arawhata Road, Kapiti Road, Rimu Road and Coastlands to Paraparaumu Station. 72 From Paraparaumu Beach shops via Golf Road, Martin Road, Gray Avenue, Eatwell Avenue, Ocean Road, Kapiti Road, Langdale Avenue, Guildford Drive, Te Roto Drive, Kapiti Road, Rimu Road and Coastlands to Paraparaumu Station.
