Founded in 1903, Ballymena Golf Club is situated about two miles North East of Ballymena on the fringes of the "Britain in Bloom" award winning village of Broughshane. It is a well drained, heathland course and as a result is playable on all but the most extreme conditions.

Although this 5, 798-yard course is relatively short, scoring is somewhat tougher thanks to well-bunkered greens and several demanding par threes. The entire course is dominated by Slemish Mountain, world famous because of its association with Ireland's patron saint, Patrick.

It's a good test for all levels of golfer, although careful club selection is a must. There is an excellent clubhouse with great facilities for the use of all visitors.
