The South Bohemian Bechyn? Golf Club was established on 28 February 1994.
The construction of the course took place in two phases. The fist phase was commenced in June 1994 and completed in October 1995. During this phase 7 greens and lanes were created, and a retention tank was constructed for watering the greens. In the subsequent second phase two long lanes of holes 4 and 5 were created leading through the woods, as well as a branch conduit from the Sudom??ice water mains of a length of 1200m (the hydro-geological study unfortunately showed that there was an insufficient quantity of groundwater and at the time it was impossible to take water from the ?ernice pond). In connection with the construction of the water source the company constructed an irrigation system for 9 greens and foregreens.
The course was opened to the public in summer 1996. The clubhouse was reconstructed from the former forestry administration building according to the design of the architect Mr. Machar.
Since 1999 the club and course have attained a standard suitable for holding nationwide contests.
The course also contains a practice range for long drives, as well as a practice area for short puts. The clubhouse is currently undergoing an extensive reconstruction, which relates particularly to the extension of the existing accommodation capacity. Following its completion in April 2008 the clubhouse shall contain ten rooms with ensuite bathroom and toilet, as well as a superb restaurant with a garden terrace and bar.
