Passchendaele Golf Club - Glace Bay, Nova Scotia
The name Passchendeale was given to the Dominion No. 4 post office in Cape Breton 1931 to memorialize the Canadian lives lost at one of the worst battles of World War One.
This delightful 9 hole, par 72 course is open and flat, with tree lined fairways, that is ideal for novice golfers. At the same time, small undulating green, prevailing breezes, water hazards, and well placed mounds will provide a challenge to any golfer. The water hazards on holes #5 and #7 must be carried to reach the green. Hole # 7 is a 450 yard par 5, with a large pond guarding the green, preventing an easy attempt to go for the green in 2. Trees block easy access to the right side of the green on the par 3, hole #9. Click HERE to visit the NSGA website for more information about this course.

Passchendaele celebrated its grand opening on Canada Day in 2000. Designed and built by Harvey Ellswoth Sr. through a 4 man work project from the federal government. The course features 30,000 feet of drainage. As a result it is usually the first course to open in Cape Breton. The course has a full driving range and a 12,000 square foot putting green.
