National Service Resort & Country Club
NSRCC Golf Singapore
is a premier dual-course golf facility in Singapore, offering two distinct 18-hole championship layouts at Changi and Kranji. Established to serve members of the Singapore Armed Forces and their families, NSRCC has grown into a top-tier public golf destination known for its accessibility, variety, and exceptional natural surroundings.
At NSRCC Changi, golfers are treated to a coastal course that hugs the eastern shoreline, with undulating fairways, water hazards, and mature tropical trees defining the layout. Designed originally by Max Wexler and later enhanced by Ted Parslow, the course offers a balance of scenic charm and technical challenge, with elevation shifts and wind conditions that change the game from hole to hole. Whether you’re teeing off near the waterfront or navigating a tight approach, this course rewards both precision and strategy.
NSRCC Kranji, on the other hand, offers a vastly different experience. Designed by legendary golfer Gary Player, this inland course emphasizes natural conservation and integrates seamlessly with the wetlands and marshes near the Kranji Reservoir. The course is flanked by native grasses, water canals, and wildlife habitats — making it one of the most eco-conscious courses in Singapore. It's a favourite among golfers who appreciate a rustic, nature-driven experience with long fairways and challenging green complexes.
Both courses provide a welcoming atmosphere, supported by state-of-the-art practice facilities, dedicated golf academies, well-stocked pro shops, and a variety of dining and leisure options for players and their families. The club is also home to a vibrant golfing community, regularly hosting social tournaments, NS events, junior programs, and interclub competitions.
Whether you’re a seasoned player looking for a new challenge or a beginner seeking a friendly public course, NSRCC delivers two unique golf experiences in one membership — or as a pay-per-round visitor.
From the sea breezes at Changi to the tranquil wetlands of Kranji, NSRCC represents one of Singapore’s most versatile and well-rounded golfing environments.

The NSRCC Changi Course is a well-established favorite among golfers who enjoy a traditional parkland-style layout with a modern twist. The course design makes excellent use of the slightly elevated coastal terrain, delivering a combination of technical challenges and beautiful scenery. Tree-lined fairways, bunkered greens, and subtle elevation changes test players’ strategy without overly punishing beginners.
Winds from the nearby sea occasionally come into play, especially on holes facing eastward, making club selection a key decision for approach shots. The greens are moderately fast, well-kept, and often guarded by bunkers or water hazards — encouraging a disciplined short game.
Changi’s location and well-maintained facilities make it ideal for both weekday golfers and weekend warriors. The atmosphere is peaceful, and the service at the clubhouse is efficient and welcoming. It’s a course that offers balance: fair but not too forgiving, scenic yet straightforward.
⛳ Recommended for mid to low handicappers looking for a solid round near the east coast of Singapore.
The Kranji Course at NSRCC is a unique experience in Singapore’s golf scene. Designed by Gary Player, this course is a thoughtful blend of golfing precision and environmental harmony. Set within the wetlands near Kranji Reservoir, it stands out for its rustic charm and emphasis on sustainability — featuring natural water bodies, open marshland, and local wildlife.
From tee to green, the course demands focus. Narrow landing zones, deep bunkers, and rolling greens require both accuracy and game management. It’s a thinking player’s course, and a step up in difficulty compared to Changi. The scenic backdrop of nature reserves and distant farms offers a tranquil, countryside feel that’s rare in Singapore.
Players often praise the quiet environment and how the course rewards those who embrace shot shaping and conservative play. The fairways and greens are usually in good condition, and pace of play is well-managed.
⛳ Ideal for serious golfers who appreciate technical layouts and a strong connection with nature.
