PGA legend Lee Trevino designed only two golf courses in Canada. Those golf courses are both at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club. Known as the Resort Course and the Links Course, the pair weaves throughout the tranquil, picturesque Pitt River Valley, challenging and welcoming golfers of all skill and experience levels. These beautiful championship courses are truly unique. The landscape is also incredible, seamlessly incorporating meandering streams, crystal-clear lakes and a breath-taking vista of coastal mountains.
A luxurious, 65,000-square-foot clubhouse puts the perfect exclamation point on the two exceptional golf courses at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club. You will feel awed the moment you arrive.
When you arrive the front gates will open, welcoming you to a wonderland of awe and grandeur. Flags from around the world fly amid peaceful trees as you enter, wondering what could possibly come around the next turn. Above, the mountains and the horizon seem to extend forever. You have truly discovered some of the most impressive terrain in the Lower Mainland and you will be ready for these two outstanding golf courses.
Life is about the moments that take your breath away – and that is how life is every day at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club. The food, the people, the game, and so much more, bring players a feeling of pure heaven. Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club is where the larger-than-life meets unsurpassed relaxation: a perfect combination.
Color is so much brighter here in the crisp air of the morning. Swaneset in the morning feels like you against yourself, the world and anyone else that would challenge the joys of the day.
The end of the day at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club is bittersweet. It was a great day to be alive. To live and feel every sensation to the extreme, still wishing that it didn’t have to end. Why can’t every day be this good? There is no question of return – you will return but with more excitement, as you will know the Swaneset way of life. To live each day in this place would be a dream come true.

In 1968, the San Diego Junior Golf Association founded the Junior World Golf Championship to connect young golfers from all parts of the world. Not only was our goal to provide youth with a premier golf experience, but we dreamed that the championship would build greater understanding among people of different cultures and values.
In its inaugural year, the event attracted 475 junior golfers from seven countries and 20 states. Today, the tournament has grown to 1250 participants, representing 56 countries and 42 states. The IMG Academy Junior World Golf Championships is now the largest international event in the world and is unique for its international representation and cultural diversity.
It all began in February 1968 when John W Brown, A.S. "Lou" Smith, and Norrie West decided the San Diego Junior Golf Association would host the very first Junior World Golf Championship tournament. The three had dreamed of organizing a tournament where juniors from all parts of the world could come together to play golf and share in cultural exchange.
The following is taken from the 1968 Junior World Program created by Norrie West:
The idea behind the Junior World Golf Championships is simply "YOUTH." The San Diego County Junior Golf Association is founded on the principle of serving young people, in the hope that by doing so today's youth will have a better chance of creating the world we all want. The Junior World tournament is an international extension of that principle. We believe that by bringing together young people from all parts of the world and all parts of our nation, we are helping to bring about greater understanding among people of differing cultures and values.
