Where possible, the club will be using local contractors and companies to complete the clubhouse.

Mr Commins said the important factor to note was the building would be for the whole community.

"It will be set up for small functions and events, it's not just for golfers," he said.

"Ideally, we would like to see everything completed by Christmas next year, so around 18 months time.

"That will depend on certain factors, but it's certainly something I'm hoping for."

Golf club volunteers will also assist with the project build, volunteering their time and labour where possible.

The plans for the clubhouse include scenic views of the course, a modern kitchen area, an outdoor covered barbecue area and much more.
