Station Creek
Richmond Hill, Ont. (May 8, 2015) – This Saturday and Sunday the Canadian Junior Golf Association (CJGA) will be conducting an event on the South course at Station Creek Golf Club in Gormley, Ont. The two-day competition will see a strong field of juniors tee it up for coveted spots on CJGA Team for both the IMG Academy Junior World Golf Championships (San Diego, CA) and the North America Cup (Toronto, Ont.).

With 36 modern holes only minutes from Highway 404 and a charming train-station style clubhouse, golfers should be ready for a great experience at Station Creek. Originally opened in 1972 and renovated in 2002-2004, Station Creek is an easy-walking parkland course known for mature forests, rolling terrain, its modern practice range and quiet ambience. The course is in Gormley on the north-eastern edge of Greater Toronto.

With up-to-date features such as large tee decks, dramatic bunkering, and green complexes that are both challenging and beautiful. The beguiling 18th on the South Course is one of the most demanding finishing holes in the ClubLink family.
