About Phoenix Golf Club

Phoenix Golf Club sits on Pavilion Lane in Brinsworth, on the edge of Rotherham, and traces its start to New Year's Day 1932, when several employees of Steel, Peech & Tozer, a local steelworks, asked management for permission to turn a stretch of scrubland and former arable ground into a golf course. The founding membership numbered just twenty-two. Development happened in stages: a nine-hole layout came first, before golf course architect C. K. Cotton drew up plans in 1949 for a full eighteen holes. Additional land north of Bawtry Road was secured, and the extended course opened formally in 1952. The result is a parkland layout that keeps walking distances manageable and asks less of players in terms of terrain than of shot-making, a reasonable option across the ability range. Rotherham grew up around coal and steel, and Brinsworth in particular was long tied to the works whose staff founded the club, a link the course still carries in its name and history. Visitors and societies are accommodated, and the clubhouse, known as the Pavilion, remains the social hub for a membership that has occupied the site for close to a century.
