Similarly to previous stops on the NextGen Championship circuit this season, exemptions into each of the Canadian Junior Championships will be awarded to the tournament’s top finishers. In the Junior Boys Division, the top six players, including the low medalist following the conclusion of the final round, will earn exemptions into the Canadian Junior Boys Championship set for August 11-15 at Gowan Brae Golf & Country Club in Bathurst, N.B.

In the Junior Girls division, the top six finishers from the event, including ties, will help round out the field at this year’s Canadian Junior Girls Championship taking place August 12 – 16 at Club de golf Sainte-Marie in Sainte Marie, Que. The top two players in both divisions will also earn exemptions into the 2025 Canadian U15 Championship set for August 27-29 at Pitt Meadows Golf Club in Pitt Meadows, B.C.

The Legends Golf Club offers a unique caveat of being a links-style course – the first layout of its kind on the 2025 Championship season. Operating since 2011, the course has become one of the premier golf experiences in Saskatchewan and has hosted provincial amateur championships at the junior, mid-amateur and professional level.

Though the course’s wide and undulating fairways offer a sense of comfort for players off the tee, thick patches of fescue strenuously defend the property and force players to rethink their club choices on every hole.

The future of Minnewasta Golf & Country Club is moving forward.

With the concrete pad which housed the clubhouse passing all inspections, building permits have been granted to begin the re-build process. This means construction of the timber frame should begin over the next few weeks.

The ultimate goal is to have the building project complete within 12 months of start date. General Contractor, Triple E Developments, and the team at the golf course will do everything to meet these deadlines, however the building schedule will be determined by how much of the re-build can be completed before snowfall.

With the clubhouse completion date a moving target based on weather, a timeline for booking of 2026 events is not available at this time.

Currently in operation for 2025 is the snack shack and the tent located in the parking lot with Santa Lucia open for business. To place your food order (431) 486-9051.

Minnewasta Golf & Country Club wishes to express gratitude for the continued support from the membership, tournament committees, public golfers, local corporate/businesses and community in general.
