The Saskatoon Golf and Country Club was originally founded in 1907 when a group of golf enthusiasts met to form the city's first golf club. Early rounds of golf were played on a 9-hole course near Spadina Crescent and 25th Street on what is now Kinsmen Park.
The club moved to land south of the city near the Exhibition grounds in 1911. Construction of a new 18-hole course designed and build by William Kinnear began in 1928. The original clubhouse, constructed in 1914, was moved to Lorne Avenue and renovations were completed for the course opening in 1931. The layout was unchanged for over 65 years. It was re-routed in 1999 to accommodate a new clubhouse and remodeled again by Ian Andrew in 2009. The current layout incorporates land from a public course adjacent to the original course.
Today, the course includes 7 holes on the back-nine from the original William Kinnear layout, and a front-nine by Ian Andrew designed to match the original style. The course features tree-lined fairways with small undulating greens, making strategic positioning and shot making essential. The often heard “don’t be above the hole” rings true for most greens.
SGCC has one of the finest practice facilities in Western Canada. The focal point is the 40-acre driving range, with 6 target greens, and teeing areas on both ends. A short game area is available for pitching, chipping and sand play, and two separate putting greens located near the clubhouse and at the 1st tee.
The 3-Hole Practice Course adjacent to the range features a Par-5, Par-4 and Par-3 accessible anytime without reservation, allowing users to practice and play as they wish.
Our modern clubhouse provides complete locker facilities, a pro shop and club storage. The dining area features two outdoor decks with scenic views of the course, offering a relaxing place to unwind after an enjoyable game of golf. Multiple banquet space choices cater to smaller groups, as well as larger events up to 120 attendees.
