Whittlesea Golf Club is situated at Humevale, a few kilometres north-east of Whittlesea, just off the road to Kinglake and Yea.

The golf club began as a nine hole course on the property of a local farmer, Walter Andrew, then moved to about 45 acres of crown land along the banks of the Plenty River in Whittlesea. As years went by the course grew to sixteen holes, with two holes played twice.

The course has undergone changes over the years with the addition of extra land changing the back nine holes. In 1963 the course was a par 67, but now is 6148 metres long with a par and ACR of 73.

In 1984 Ken McCombe came from Green Acres to be curator, and in 1990 the present curator, Carl Padget was appointed. Gerry Sexton, the Club Professional, took up his position when the Pro Shop was completed in 1989.

Several successful Pro-Ams have been held at Whittlesea, with Ian Baker-Finch having one of his first professional wins at this course.
