Celebrating Nearly 100 Years of Community, Culture, and Golf
This week, we’re thrilled to feature John Williams, President of the Rawhiti Golf Club, a cornerstone of Christchurch’s sporting and cultural landscape with thanks to The Elmwood Trading Company.
A Unique Partnership
The Rawhiti Golf Club stands out as a rare model of collaboration: the golf course itself is a Christchurch City Council asset, but it’s managed jointly by the club and the City. This partnership ensures the course remains accessible, well-maintained, and deeply connected to the local community.
A Century of History
Approaching its 100th anniversary, Rawhiti Golf Club has seen generations of golfers pass through its fairways. From humble beginnings to becoming a vibrant hub for sport and social connection, the club’s legacy is woven into the fabric of Christchurch’s eastern suburbs.
Embracing Diversity
Rawhiti has long been a proud partner of the Samoan Golf community, hosting multi-cultural events that bring together players from all backgrounds. These gatherings celebrate not just the game, but the spirit of inclusion, friendship, and shared heritage.
