Originally Lisbon Sports Club Golf Course dates back to 1880, when a group of English residents living in the Lisbon area, founded a Sports Club. By 1890 they had built a small 6-hole golf course in Algés and in 1922 the Club moved to Alto da Ajuda to a 9-hole golf course. Then, in 1964, the Club moved to Casal de Carregueira, where it remains today situated between the village of Belas and Vale de Lobos, about 20 km from Cascais and Lisbon. Nowadays, The Lisbon Sports Club is a typical parkland golf course, and its 18-hole layout was designed by Hawtree & Sons.
