Welcome to Sherwood Park Golf Club

Sherwood Park, venue of the 2002 Tower interprovincial tournament, can be a daunting challenge off the Championship tees at 6007m for a par of 70. Off the other tees it is still testing - the Premier at 5826m, par 71, the Club at 5584m, par 71 and the Ladies’ at 5124m, par 72 (Using other tees, the Ladies also have a championship course of 5605m, par 71.)

Hole 1 Par 4
Championship 301m, Premier 301m, Club 295m, Ladies 290m
Straightforward loosener with easy second or third shot to elevated green with plenty of borrow.

Hole 2 Par 4
Championship 389m, Premier 384m, Club 345m, Ladies 315m
Long, straight par 4 that requires careful approach shot to peninsula-type, sloping green.

Hole 3 Par 3
Championship 137m, Premier 133m, Club 128m, Ladies 118m
Slightly uphill to green guarded by large bunker at front left accuracy needed.

Hole 4 Par 5 (Par 4 off championship tee)
Championship 420m (par 4), Premier 441m, Club 433m, Ladies 415m
Dogleg to right around tree-covered hillock, then narrowing curved approach to bunkered green needs good tee shot; tough off the Championship tee as a par 4.

Hole 5 Par 4
Championship 406m, Premier 379m, Club 367m, Ladies 309m
Needs accurate tee shot through tree-lined gap, then straight “up and over” towards large sloping (and tricky) green.

Hole 6 Par 3
Championship 177m, Premier 168m, Club 161m, Ladies 148m
Tough hole in crosswind from elevated tee across open space to bunkered green.

Hole 8 Par 4
Championship 390m, Premier 357m, Club 340m, Ladies 318m
Picturesque little dogleg around big tree to tricky green surrounded by trees.

Hole 9 Par 4
Championship 400m, Premier 365m, Club 355m, Ladies 305m
Another to test accuracy off the tee, but then an open approach to large green.

Hole 10 Par 4
Championship 327m, Premier 327m, Club 321m, Ladies 314m
Yet another little dogleg, but keep the teeshot straight and it’s a good birdie chance.

Hole 11 Par 4
Championship 356m, Premier 356m, Club 356m, Ladies 325m
Accuracy needed for second (or third) shot through gap to long, sloping green.

Hole 12 Par 5
Championship 463m, Premier 458m, Club 428m, Ladies 388m
Looks longer than it is, as wide fairway narrows down to tree-lined approach to enclosed green.

Hole 13 Par 4 (Par 5 for Ladies)
Championship 408m, Premier 392m, Club 379m, Ladies 385m (par 5)
Probably the toughest par 4, with the angled approach to an elevated green guarded by a large tree on one side and a couple of ponds on the other.

Hole 14 Par 3
Championship 186m, Premier 180m, Club 154m, Ladies 131m
Delightful signature hole over a couple of ponds but not as easy as it looks.

Hole 15 Par 4
Championship 276m, Premier 276m, Club 261m, Ladies 233m
Testing teeshot then uphill approach to green - easiest hole on men’s card.

Hole 16 Par 4
Championship 369m, Premier 337m, Club 326m, Ladies 318m
Driver's delight! Straight up the middle gives option of high shot over tree or flat curl into green.

Hole 17 Par 3
Championship 162m, Premier 157m, Club 139m, Ladies 130m
Deceptively tricky through narrow, tree-lined gap to long, two-tier green.

Hole 18 Par 4
Championship 372m, Premier 347m, Club 336m, Ladies 294m
Good drive needed on dog-leg left, then easy approach to large, elevated green.
