Founded in 1962, the Sainte-Marie Golf Club is set in a stunning landscape with mature trees and views of the Beauce Valley; the Sainte-Marie Golf Club offers greens and fairways of unmatched quality. Thanks to the partnership of two visionary businessmen, Mr. Benoît Vachon and Mr. Roland Lacroix, land located on Rang St-Étienne in Sainte-Marie caught their attention due to its proximity, terrain, and vegetation. Together, Mr. Vachon and Mr. Lacroix fully committed to realizing this great dream, investing their time and generously contributing significant financial support. From 1968 to 1969, under the supervision of architect Howard Watson, a series of major works were carried out to expand and improve the original nine-hole course.
The Canadian Junior Girls Championship has a long list of distinguished past champions that have etched their name on the Brokenshire Trophy. Past champions include, Canadian Golf Hall of Famers Sandra Post (1964-66), Betty Stanhope (1956), Judy Darling (1957), Gail Harvey Moore (1958-1960) and Gayle Borthwick (1961).
