    EP.171 Keeper of the Greens - Darcy Jones (Catalina Club)
    Feb 16 2026
    Keeper Of The Greens segment of The Golfing Greenkeeper Podcast is brought to you by John Deere Golf. When you work where others play, you need a partner you can trust to keep your course in perfect condition. Find your nearest ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠J⁠ohn Deere dealer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠deere.com.au⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Darcy Jones is the Superintendent at Catalina Club in Batemans Bay on the NSW South Coast. This is a big golf facility of 27 holes that is soon to begin some changes to the site by golf course architects KruseGolf and Clayton DeVries Pont (CDP) working together as part of the clubs forward vision.Darcy was introduced where he grew up as a young kid in south western NSW and upon his family moving to the NSW South Coast, he soon became more interested in the game and where he became an apprentice greenkeeper working with his twin brother.Upon completing his apprenticeship Darcy was soon looking for something more and he would find his way to Wimbledon in London, England! After working for a time in the UK, Darcy headed back to Australia and landed a role at Royal Melbourne Golf Club.I won't share anymore other than to say that Darcy has experienced a great deal in his career all the way to becoming Superintendent at Catalina Club, and I'm sure you'll enjoy his story along with learning a few things about Catalina Club and it's very bright future ahead. It's time to kick back and enjoy this chat and maybe even plan your next golf trip to the south coast of NSW.You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - ⁠⁠thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.com⁠⁠People and places mentioned in this podcast:Catalina ClubKruseGolfClayton DeVries Pont (CDP)CluBarham GolfNarooma Golf ClubBermagui Country ClubAll England Lawn Tennis & Croquet ClubRoyal Wimbledon Golf ClubTura Beach Country ClubRoyal Canberra Golf ClubRoyal Melbourne Golf ClubSandy Golf LinksVictoria Golf ClubOCM Golf DesignThe Dunes Golf LinksSt. Andrews Beach Golf Course13th Beach Golf LinksLonsdale LinksNSW Golf ClubRoyal Sydney Golf ClubKillara Golf ClubEP.95 Keeper of the Greens - Richard ForsythEP.70 Keeper of the Greens - Pat WilsonEP.111 Keeper of the Greens - Josh SmithEP.159 Keeper of the Greens - Adam MarchantEP.135 Steve's Random Special Guest - Mike O'Keeffe

    If you haven't heard of The Cliffs Kangaroo Island yet, trust me, you soon will!


    Sam Atkins is a passionate man, a passionate owner of this new golf course, and a passionate and proud South Australian. Sam joins me to discuss in detail the full story of The Cliffs Kangaroo Island, how the idea was spawned, what has gone into building this somewhat mysterious new golf course on an island off South Australia, what challenges they have had to overcome, and just what it means to be able to offer a new golf course such as this to the Australian golf landscape.


    Join with me as Sam lets us in on the passion behind this project, what we can expect from the golf course and the hospitality when we finally get there, and just what makes Kangaroo Island so special in general! This is one conversation you won't want to miss out on so grab you favourite beverage of choice, kick your feet up and prepare to grab your diary to book in your trip to Kangaroo Island to experience The Cliffs when it's open for play!


    You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!
