Club West, Phoenix, Ariz. – Located not far from ASU’s Sun Devil Stadium – site of the 2006 Insight Bowl game – but tucked away from the busy city, along the southern edge of Phoenix’s South Mountain Park, sits the beautiful Club West Golf Club. Open since late 1993, the Brian Whitcomb design snakes its way through 90 acres of rolling desert and mountainous terrain. At 7,057-yards and playing to a par-72, Club West features an ideal blend of challenging and fun-to-play golf holes.

Palm Valley, Goodyear, Ariz. – Located just minutes from the University of Phoenix Stadium – site of the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and BCS National Championship games – Palm Valley has something for everyone, including two exceptional golf courses. The par 62 Lakes Course is perfect for beginning golfers or golfers looking to play in less than 4 hours. With eight par 4s ranging from 322 yards to 432 yards, the Lakes Course can definitely challenge anyone’s game. Palm Valley’s par 72 Palms Course is a classic Arthur Hills design that is consistently one of the best conditioned and most affordable golf courses in the Valley anytime of the year.

Sanctuary, Scottsdale, Ariz. – Located in the heart of North Scottsdale, and near the locations of the 2006 Insight Bowl, The Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and the BCS National Championship, Sanctuary is the state’s first golf course to attain Audubon International Institute Signature status. Sanctuary provides golfers with an exceptional layout and matching playing conditions while preserving and maintaining a healthy, thriving environment. With five sets of tees on each hole, Sanctuary provides an enjoyable golf experience for players of every skill level and is one of the most affordable golf courses in Scottsdale.

SunRidge Canyon, Fountain Hills, Ariz. – Set amid the dramatic mountains and weathered canyons of Fountain Hills, and within easy travel distance of 2006 Insight Bowl, The Tostitos Fiesta Bowl and the BCS National Championship, SunRidge Canyon is a spectacular layout designed by Keith Foster. The course’s undulating fairways have been sculpted between canyon walls and gigantic rock outcroppings. Sparkling lakes, multi-tiered waterfalls and acres of saguaro cacti add to the beauty of this lush, desert golf course. SunRidge Canyon is located just beyond Scottsdale in Fountain Hills.
