Location

The Lisbon Golf Academy is located in a unique area of the Portuguese capital, within the context of the University City, in the parish of Alvalade. Its location is particularly interesting as it is situated next to the Lisbon University Stadium, in an area that combines academic vitality with an environment conducive to sports practice. It is a golf facility that stands out for being in the heart of the city, offering an unusual contrast between sports practice and the dense urban environment of Lisbon.

The Origin of an Urban Golf Facility

This place, with over seven years of existence, was born from the vision of revaluing and requalifying an existing natural area within the Lisbon University Stadium. The objective was to transform this space into a benchmark for golf in the city. Thus, the Lisbon Golf Academy emerges as a remarkable example of how an urban natural environment can be adapted to accommodate a sport, offering a green refuge and an option for sports leisure in the middle of the capital.

Quality Infrastructure for Practice

The Academy offers a practice field, known as a driving range, over two hundred meters long, equipped with forty-four bays, twenty-two of which are covered. This modern facility integrates pioneering technology in Portugal, the Trackman Range, which features monitors for precise and interactive training. Visitors can view their shots in real-time, analyze statistics, and even simulate playing on world-famous golf courses, making the experience more dynamic and enjoyable. In addition to the practice field, there are dedicated areas for the putting green and chipping green, essential for perfecting different aspects of the game.

Golf as a Challenge and Leisure

Golf is a sport that requires focus and concentration, stimulating reasoning and the ability to create strategies when facing the challenges of the course. At the Lisbon Golf Academy, practitioners can find an environment conducive to both learning the fundamentals of the sport and improving their techniques. It is a place that invites the practice of healthy and mentally stimulating physical activity, providing moments of social interaction or more technical training, all without leaving the city of Lisbon.
