The Hyderabad Golf Association (HGA), a non-profit society, was formed in 1992 with the objective of building a golf course to meet international standards. This facility would be accessible to all civilian residents of the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad as also visiting golfers from India and abroad. It would also be an added attraction to the social infrastructure of the city, which was becoming a major tourist, business and industrial destination. The course would also to be the cradle for training talented young golfers to become the champions of the future.

The site comprises of the former municipal garbage dump and an area within the ‘Naya Quila’ – a component of the Golconda fort complex. The project is a joint venture development between the AP Tourism Development Corporation Ltd (a Govt. of A.P. undertaking) and HGA.

HGA has a modern clubhouse & well-maintained and manicured 18-hole, 4525 yard, Par 66 course with the fastest greens in the twin cities. 2 of the greens are repeated. These along with a floodlit driving range, pro shop & adequate training & practice facilities– has enabled HGA to become the top golfing destination in the city. With a rapidly growing golf membership & a program that is encouraging more and more youngsters to take up the game, the golfing traffic at the course has seen exponential growth.

Plans are underway to convert it into a full-fledged international standard 18-hole course in the near future.
