Prisons Golf Club

Prisons Golf Club, known locally as Kelab Golf Penjara, is a compact nine-hole, par-30 course at Km 10 on Jalan Penrissen, on the southern side of Kuching. GolfPass records the course as dating from 1971, and it is a public parkland facility open throughout the year.

The course measures about 1,656 metres from the white tees, making it an executive-style layout with a high proportion of short holes. That makes it a practical place to sharpen iron play and the short game, introduce new golfers to the game or fit in a quick nine after work without committing to a full day.

Facilities are simple: pull carts, a putting green and a clubhouse with snacks. Walking is permitted and the dress code is casual, with denim acceptable, which keeps the atmosphere informal. For golfers who want a full 18, the larger courses around Kuching are a short drive away, but Prisons Golf Club remains a useful and affordable option in the city.

Short courses are perfect for social golf. Use CoGolfers to host golf games at Prisons Golf Club, invite beginners and golf buddies, or join golf games posted by other golfers in Kuching. It is an easy way to meet golfers, find golf partners for practice rounds and connect with golfers near you.
