Facility Spotlight: Legacy Golf Links

Legacy Golf Links is a Nicklaus designed public course that was established in 1991. Shortly after opening, the course hosted the U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links Championship in 2000, joining the few select golf courses in the area who have hosted a USGA National Championship. The course was renovated in 2012 and features Mini Verde greens and is routed around five lakes. This beautiful facility hosts First Tee programs throughout the entire year. Because of the generosity and support of the Legacy Golf Links’ staff, we were able to expand our partnership with The Academy of Moore County and host a class directly after school for those students! We are lucky to have a golf course staff who whole heartily aids and supports us in furthering our mission!

“Legacy Golf Links has been an integral part of the Sandhills community since its inception. Legacy supports the community in various ways, none more important and rewarding than First Tee – Sandhills. In an age where technology has taken over and limited true social interaction beyond social media, the First Tee program introduces boys and girls to the game of golf. In addition to that, it also assists in socializing children at a young age, allowing them access to the outdoors in a peer group situation and allows them to enjoy the game of golf in an atmosphere unlike any other. Legacy Golf Links is very proud and honored to be part of a program that introduces children and teenagers to a game full of fun, challenges and integrity.”
