Royal Ship Sapporo Golf Club Management Office Building

Royal Ship Sapporo Golf Club is an 18-hole championship course located in Atsuta Ward, Ishikari City, approximately 30 minutes by car from central Sapporo. The course features a par 72 layout with multiple tee options accommodating various skill levels.

The design emphasizes precision and strategic shot-making. Notable characteristics include several par-5s that demand accuracy, particularly holes 4, 8, 12, and 18. Water hazards are significant features, with a prominent pond on the par-3 7th hole and a substantial water hazard with beach bunker fronting the green on the finishing hole. Out-of-bounds zones along the left side of several holes, particularly holes 4, 12, 14, and 17, require careful alignment off the tee.

The course presents varied difficulty, with handicap ratings ranging from 1 (hole 5) to 18 (hole 14). The terrain includes gentle elevation changes, strategically placed bunkers guarding greens, and multi-tiered putting surfaces requiring thoughtful club selection. The layout demands both distance and accuracy, with particular emphasis on approach shot precision and green-reading skills. The club hosts regular competitive events throughout the season, including age-group opens and monthly competitions.
