Assistant Golf Professional

The Foundry Golf Club is an 18-hole member-owned private golf only club 25 miles southwest of Richmond, VA. Currently ranked as one of the best courses in the state of Virginia, The Foundry resides on historical grounds. The Foundry does roughly 16,000 rounds annually and currently has 300 members. The club features a driving range, short game area, putting green, locker rooms, and dining facilities in the over 200 year old clubhouse. An indoor Golf Studio was added with a TrackMan simulator a few years ago. The course plays over 6,900 yards from the back tees and features demanding tee shots and very fast, challenging green complexes. The Foundry is currently working with architect Andrew Green on a Master Plan to enhance the golf course and facilities to push it into the future.
