Bahrain International Golf Course Company
BIGCC is a partner with Arcapita WLL in the Riffa Views Signature Estates residential development. The Royal Golf Club is under construction on the site of the former Riffa Golf Club, owned by BIGCC, and will form the centerpiece of the new development.
On completion, the Royal Golf Club will ultimately revert to 100% ownership by BIGCC.
The Royal Golf Club at Riffa Views was designed by golfing legend Colin Montgomerie and is due to open in autumn 2008. The new 18-hole, 7102 yard, par 72 championship golf course has been designed in a traditional links style which takes advantage of the natural desert terrain of Bahrain. Modern floodlighting will be installed on the back 9 holes at The Royal Golf Club allowing golfers to enjoy night golf well after sunset.
The course is complemented by a 9-hole par 3 academy course, a new Royal golf academy, a country club and a newly extended and refurbished club house offering an array of dining options, conference facilities and a fully stocked golf shop.
In addition to its landscaping division and its ownership and management of the Royal Golf Club at Riffa Views, Bahrain International Golf Course Company also operates a golf cart business from their headquarters in Budaiya as well as managing the Riffa Views Golf & Leisure retail outlet at Country Mall on Budaiya Road.
