Golf for all: how Meaztegi Golf brings the sport to players of all levels
The spirit of public golf in Bizkaia
In the heart of Bizkaia, surrounded by mountains and nature, you will find Meaztegi Golf, a unique course designed by the legendary Severiano Ballesteros. Since its opening, the club has defended a clear philosophy: to make golf a sport accessible, inclusive and open to all audiences.
In a world where golf still carries the image of being elitist, Meaztegi Golf has managed to break that barrier, offering first class facilities, affordable prices and a welcoming environment for players of any age or level of experience.
Its commitment to the democratization of golf has made it a benchmark for public sport in the Basque Country.
A facility open and accessible to all
Unlike other private or restricted access courses, Meaztegi Golf is a public course managed with the aim of bringing golf closer to the public.
This means that anyone – from beginners to experienced players – can enjoy its facilities without the need to belong to an exclusive club or pay high fees.
Affordable and flexible rates
The club offers rates adapted to each type of player, with reduced prices for juniors, students, seniors and local season ticket holders. In addition, occasional players can enjoy the course through daily rates or vouchers, while more frequent players can access annual memberships with additional benefits.
This inclusive model allows golf to stop being a sport reserved for the few and become a sporting activity accessible to all.
Learning from scratch: Meaztegi’s golf school
One of the fundamental pillars of the club is its golf school, which is part of the sports development program of the City Council of Trapagaran and the Provincial Council of Bizkaia.
With a team of professional instructors, the school offers personalized classes, courses for beginners and improvement programs designed for all ages and levels.
Classes for adults, youth and families
The courses are designed to allow each player to evolve at his or her own pace.
- Beginning golf: ideal for those who have never played and wish to learn the fundamentals of the swing, putting and the etiquette of the game.
- Improvement classes: focused on improving technique, precision and strategy in the field.
- Family and junior programs: designed for parents and children to enjoy the sport together, promoting coexistence and the values of golf from an early age.
This training structure makes Meaztegi a place where learning, practicing and enjoying go hand in hand.
Pitch & Putt: the gateway to golf
The Pitch & Putt course at Meaztegi Golf is one of the most effective tools to attract new players. With shorter holes and a more agile pace of play, this format facilitates the practice of golf without the pressure and duration of a full round.
Pitch & Putt allows beginners to learn the fundamentals of the short game, while more experienced players can hone their accuracy and control.
It is also an ideal choice for families, schools and groups of friends looking for a fun and relaxed experience.
In addition, this tour has very affordable prices, which reinforces the club’s objective of being a meeting point between sport, leisure and learning.
World-class training facilities
The Meaztegi complex has a large practice area with driving range, chipping areas and putting green, ideal for beginners as well as for professional training.
These infrastructures, together with the main 18-hole course, allow players to improve all facets of their game in a quiet, safe environment surrounded by nature.
The combination of competition course, school and practice area makes Meaztegi Golf a complete sports space that meets the needs of all types of golfers.
Community-building events and activities
Beyond the sporting aspect, Meaztegi Golf promotes an authentic Basque golfing community through local tournaments, open days and family activities.
The club regularly organizes amateur competitions, charity tournaments and social events that promote conviviality and sportsmanship.
In this way, the course becomes a meeting point where people share experiences, make new friends and experience golf as a social and healthy activity.
Golf as a social and educational engine
Meaztegi’s involvement with the community goes beyond sport. The club collaborates with schools, sports associations and local entities, promoting golf as an educational tool that encourages discipline, respect and self-improvement.
These actions consolidate its role as a reference for public and social golf in Bizkaia.
A modern and inclusive golf model
The success of Meaztegi Golf lies in its modern vision of the sport: offering quality, training and accessibility without losing respect for the tradition of golf.
Its commitment to inclusion and sustainability has made it a model to follow, demonstrating that it is possible to offer a professional golf experience within everyone’s reach.
Whether you are a beginner, amateur or experienced player, Meaztegi Golf offers you a place to enjoy, learn and improve surrounded by nature and good atmosphere.
A course designed by Seve Ballesteros, designed for all players, and that embodies the essence of golf as a universal sport.
