History

The golf club was originally a section of Ferrybridge "C" Power Station sports and social club. Started in 1970s, the course was in two parts round the car parks and the cooling towers. It was laid entirely by the members themselves.

Modifications were made down the years but the realignment of the A1 meant the course had to close with the members being accommodated at Mid Yorkshire golf club until a new course could be built to the North of the power station by the Highways Agency.

When the new course was opened, the golf club became Ferrybridge Golf Club and operated as a stand-alone golf club with membership open to the general public.

In 2011 the golf course closed again due to the site owners SSE building a new power station on the course. The members were once again to be accommodated at Mid Yorkshire golf club.

We now have a new 9 hole golf course, with 2 tees per hole built in Fryston Park which is on the other side of the A1 to the station.

The new course has been designed by Simon Gidmon and opened in 2017.

The course is surrounded by mature woodland, inside the course there are 3 large areas of the same mature woodlands which the designer has made full use of in the course layout, this gives the impression the course is much more mature than it is and at 6300 yards for 18 holes will be a test of golf for high and low handicap golfers. The 7th green is also guarded by a lake.

The club has a purpose built clubhouse where we can accommodate and cater for members and visiting parties. The club caters for all golfers no matter what their abilities. We offer 5 & 7 day membership and 9 hole mid week handicap competitions.
