About the course

The Mt Xavier Disc Golf layout was opened in 2024 and is an initiative of the club with the support of the Mount Xavier Golf Club and GUF Ballarat. This course hosts Ballarat Disc Golf's annual mid-summer event the Golden City Classic, it also hosted the inaugural Aussie Masters in 2025 which was hosted across both the Mount Xavier and Victoria Park courses. -- This course will challenge you in ways that you will struggle to find anywhere else in the state. With tight wooded gaps, broad open golf fairways, and elevation changes on almost every hole, this course is one of a kind in the region. There are a number of improvements that Ballarat Disc Sports are currently working on. - We have completed the installation of permanent teepads on holes 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, and 16 thank you to the team at GUF Ballarat for donating the resources needed to build these. - Teepad on hole 13 is under construction. - We are in the process of installing navigational signage to aid players in getting from one hole to the next. We also have course maps at the club house. -- Ballarat Disc Sports hosts league days on the First Sunday of each month at 12:30, entry to league days will be $10 and this covers your green fees for the day. Green Fees are $10 per person, per day. Ballarat Disc Sports Club Members are not required to pay Green Fees to play, you can purchase a club membership for $80 at our website. https://www.ballaratdiscsports.com.au/

Mt Xavier has had quickly become my favorite course 18 basket/teepad course in Vic. There is so much variety in every hole, and each one demands or offers something different. The use of elevation is phenomenal, though makes using a cart a bit a bush bash mission. The blend of open fairways and tight wooden lines is amazing, there's some big bomb anny lines, super fun downhill ace runs, placement shot fairways, and I gotta say- yeeting a backhand roller on hole 16 is so much fun!! Would love to see 1-2 par 5s on this close so I'm crossing my fingers for an alternate layout, either a different pin layout or different tee pad- or both! I would come to any and all fundraiser events to make this happen!! But this course, as is, has to be top 5 in Australia if not top 3. Well done to the course designers and everyone who pitched in to make the course ready for TGCC '26
