Courses
Originally Lisbon Sports Club dates back to 1880, when a group of English residents living in the Lisbon area, founded a Sports Club. By 1890 they had built a small six hole golf course in Alges. In 1922 the Club moved to Alto da Ajuda to a nine hole course. Then, in 1962, the Club moved again, this time to Casal de Carregueira, where it remains today situated between the village of Belas and Vale de Lobos, about 20 km from Cascais and Lisbon. The course was inaugurated with nine holes, five more holes were added a few years later and then finally in 1992 its eighteen holes were completed.
Situated amidst hills and valleys it is a relatively short course, however the natural layout of the land makes it more difficult than it appears. Concentration and strategy are fundamental. Along most of the course runs a winding water ditch. The narrow fairways lined with beautiful old trees and abundant vegetation blend in perfectly with the natural surroundings. Each hole is so different that no matter how often they are played, there are always new challenges awaiting the player.
The comfortable Club House with its veranda overlooking the magnificent woodland was originally the old Manor House of Casal da Carregueira. Lisbon Sports Club also boasts an excellent swimming pool, three shale tennis courts, a driving range and a small practice area.
