History. Tradition. Family.

Worcester Country Club is a private club established in 1900. The current golf course was designed by renowned architect Donald Ross and opened in 1914.

Worcester Country Club is a family club. The camaraderie that exists is outstanding. New members quickly meet other members through organized social events, Twilite Leagues, organized group golfing and tournaments that are team focused or individual matches.

Worcester Country Club has a long and storied history. The Club’s roots were sown with the founding of Worcester Golf Club in 1900. In 1913 the Club was relocated and contracted with renowned architect Donald J. Ross. Ross crafted a gem that stretches over 6,600 yards and plays to a par 70. But Worcester is best known as the site of the inaugural Ryder Cup in 1927. In this contest the United States team, captained by Walter Hagen, handily defeated Ted Ray’s squad from Great Britain 9-1/2 to 2-1/2. As such, Worcester is one of only three golf clubs to host the premier men’s, the premier women’s and the premier international tournaments.

Golf Course

The Worcester Country Club has unique features including five par threes, which make the course play longer than one might first imagine. Most importantly, the course is a source of joy for the members and their guests. Its design and character create a route that is always a challenge.

Dining

Whether your is a casual gathering on our patio overlooking the 18th green or in one of the many diverse dining room opportunities in our Clubhouse, it is a special event at WCC. Select your choice of the Ryder Cup Room, the Library for an intimate dining experience or the Tavern to watch the game while enjoying dinner. We are renowned for our ultimate handson-service. In fact, beyond our legendary course, Worcester Country Club’s one-of-a-kind Clubhouse venues and restaurant offerings are celebrated by our Members as top destinations in the Worcester area.

Pool and Recreation Complex

Worcester Country Club’s was completed in June of 2010. Members and guests alike have enjoyed the lap pool, adventure pool with diving board and hillside slide and the tennis courts with multipurpose courts adjacent. The large patio and fireplace have become gathering places for impromptu functions.

Our Snack Shop and Cabana Bar feature a varied menu and is the perfect place to enjoy the day with family and friends or to relax after a round of golf.

Facilities
