About Us

Back in in 1991, a few people interested in golf wanted to build a golf course in Marsberg. Therefore they founded the “Golfclub Marsberg”. At first, they just played at a Driving Range behind the “Waldhaus”. The number of players steadily increased.

In 1998 the “Golfclub Marsberg” was closed. With support of the former chairman of the sports club in Westheim – F.-J. Weiffen – a golf department was about to be founded. It was supposed to be a golf club on the examples of Sweden and Scotland, a club and a place for everyone, without any kind of ambitions to be a championship course.

In 1999, 70 members came together and began to plan. Due to requirements of the “Deutscher Golf Verband” (DGV) the club had to be named “TuS Westheim Golfclub”. They instructed the “Hoppenberg Golf KG” to build and maintain a golf course. The number of members increased quickly. Since 2000 we play at 9 simple tracks without water hazards and trees. We hired Brian Cockeril as coach, who gives lessons on sunny winter Sundays, too.

On March 1st, 2001, we received the building license. Since April we are members of the DGV and LGV (“Landes-Golfverband NRW”). On September 29th mayor Reinhard Schandelle officially opened the course and representatives of both churches inaugurated it.

In summer 2003, we began with the extension to a 9-hole, Par 72 course. The grand opening was in August 2004, at the same time we opened the 6 hole “Pay and Play” course, which was raised by the VCG.

An extension to the course has been opened in the summer of 2011 after a short production phase. The course now has got 18 holes with a Par 70 rating.
