| Golf Course Our William A. Flynn designed golf course is regarded as one of the finest condition courses in the Delaware Valley. Situated on 130 acres in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, Woodcrest offers players of all levels of expertise a unique challenge of doglegging and narrow fairways and small and subtlety contoured greens. Regarded as the biggest one day Pro-Am on the Philadelphia Section PGA annual tournament schedule, for 37 years the club has been the host of the Woodcrest Pro-Am which has contributed hundreds of thousand of dollars to local charities. Woodcrest has played host to the Philadelphia Section PGA Championship, qualifying for the US Open and many other premier tournaments and golf outings. Join us in a tour of the course with descriptions of the holes by PGA Director of Golf, Dick Smith Jr. |
 #1 - The Orchard A demanding opening hole. Dogleg left, Par 4 plays every bit of the yardage to a well bunkered, sloped green that will definitely test your putting skills. |
| 
#2 - Straightaway Keeping the ball in this narrow fairaway is a must from tee to green. A reachable Par 5 for the long hitter, this is one of the must birdies on the course. |
| 
#3 - The Island Water guards the front and left side of this medium length Par 3. An accurate iron shot should set up an easy par. |
| 
#4 - The Woodcrest The only true dog leg right on the course. A good tee shot is needed to hit this fairway which is guarded by pine trees. Only the longest of hitters can have a go at this green in two. Most will lay up to 125 yards and then need an accurate third shot to this elevated green. |
 #5 - The Hillside This beautiful, short Par 3 is a real devil. Deep bunkers both left and right, combined with a very narrow green makes par a great score. |
 #10 - The Meadow Another narrow fairways puts a premium on the tee shot. An uphill second shot to a well protected green. A Par 4 to start your back nine is a great score. |
#12 - The Oaks Our signature hole and one of the best in the Philadelphia area. The hole plays very long and usually into the wind. Green is protected by a huge oak tree on lthe left and deep bunker on the right. Only the best player will escape with a Par 4. |
| 
#13 - The Plateau Another great Par 3. Any shot which is slightly off line to this uphill green will find the deep greenside bunkers. Par is a great score. |
 #15 - The Links Be very careful. This hole looks easy on the scorecard. Any tee shot in the fairway leave a reasonable shot to the green. Once on the green a two putt is no sure bet. This large, very undulating green makes a big number possible. |
 #17 - Cliffside The final Par 3 is a great one. An elevated green which slopes off in the front and to the left. Five perfectly placed bunkers leave a good chance in finding the sand. Take a score of three and head to the finishing hole. |
 #18 - Long John A beautiful finishing hole with a great view of the fairway and a beautiful backdrop at the green. Two. Long, accurate shots will place you just short of the pond which protects the green. A green which is severely sloped from front to back looks like an easy target from the fairway but requires an exceptional shot to hold. A two put is not a guarantee. Finishing with a par 5 will end your day on a high note. | |
