Event Courses Details & Location

Round 1 The Falls Golf Club, in Chilliwack was
carved from the foothills of Mount Cheam, providing
the course with a dramatic landscape that is ideal for
a challenging round. The views from the golf course
span across the scenic Fraser Valley. The challenge
and scenery of the Falls has earned it a reputation
amongst locals as one of BC's best-kept secrets. The
rolling terrain is accented with natural rock
outcroppings and tall cedars, which both come into
play throughout the golf course. The changes in
elevation total over 750 feet, ranging from subtle to
dramatic. There are many formidable holes but they
each have an average of five sets of tees so that
players of all abilities can play to their skill level. The
Falls Golf Club's memorable fourth hole even has
nine different tees as well as a 100-foot drop to the
green.

Round 2 Sandpiper Golf Course, recent winner of
the PGA of BCs Hidden Gem awards, is located 75
minutes East of Vancouver and is open to the public
364 days a year. This par 72 course runs 6,500 yards
from the back tees, and is gently sloped, featuring
four sets of tees for all playing abilities. Canadian
course designer, Russ Olsen, has done an amazing
job of taking advantage of the spectacular water and
mountain vistas when designing this masterpiece.
Sandpiper Golf Course has played host to several
Vancouver Golf Tour events, most notably the 2013
Canada Bread BC Match Play & the VGTs Inaugural
36-Hole Major Series Event the 2013 VGT
Sandpiper Open.

passionate about both golf and their club. Seeing
