The Alexandria Sporting Club In Alexandria

   

   

            
Built in 1898 and used during the British occupation, the Alexandria Sporting Club is one of the oldest sporting clubs in Egypt.  In 1952, it was taken over by the state, converted into a national club (like the El Gezira Club in Zamalek) and was managed by the Chairman of the Club, Mahmoud Hamdy.  Today, the golf course stands on 97 feddans, 97 percent of which constitutes the total club area.  It is a flat course with tricky bunkers and can be played by beginners as well as experts.  The club also features four restaurants, the Club House Restaurant being the most luxurious, and the Happy Land restaurant serving the children's playground.  It also offers party catering.
