The Brockville Country Club is one of the best you will find in Eastern Ontario. The 18-hole course at 6343 to 4506 yards is not especially long to today’s standards but deceptively challenging. With considerable elevation changes, many narrow and treed fairways, challenging par 3’s and ample sand traps and water hazards, the course can play tough. However, seven (7) sets of tee blocks ensure the course can be enjoyed by all levels of golfers.
The Brockville Country Club is looking for a highly motivated individual to become our next Superintendent. The position works alongside our Head Golf Professional and under the direction of our General Manager and the Board of Directors.
