Caesarea Golf Club

After design difficulties and efforts to find suitable grass that could withstand the Middle-Eastern climate, the course was built and an irrigation system that included an underground network of pipes was installed.

[citation needed] The committee set out to draft golfers and to promote the sport in Israel and the golf course abroad.

The Club was renovated and upgraded several times over the years, as systems were replaced and modernized, requiring huge financial resources.

In 1980, after a new irrigation system was installed at a cost of millions of Israeli shekels, the members convened a general meeting to petition Edmond de Rothschild to increase the annual subsidy for the club.

[citation needed] Among the visitors to the club have been Sean Connery, Kirk Douglas, Frank Sinatra, and Danny Kaye.
