Course History:
Built in 1926 by world-renowned golf
course architect Donald Ross, Delray
Beach Golf Club has been a staple of the
south Florida golf community since its
beginning. First built as a 9 hole course,
the course operated until World War II.
Reopening in 1945, another 9 holes were
opened in 1950, and became a course
that touring professionals such as Betty
Jameson and Tommy Armour would
play on their way to Miami.
Today, Delray Beach Golf Club is an accessible public venue suitable for players
of all levels. With exceptional greens,
manicured grounds, and a fun atmosphere, Delray Beach Golf Club is a mustplay for any golfer.

The Delray Beach Miracle League is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization that provides children with mental and/or physical challenges an opportunity to play baseball as a team member in an organized league. The playing field is level and synthetic
with flat bases to avoid the problems that come with uneven ground and mobility obstacles. League rules specify every player
bats once each inning and all base runners are safe. Every player scores a run before the inning is over and the last batter gets
a home run. Each team and player wins every game.
