Priddis Greens is a private golf club located near Priddis in the rolling hills, which provide not only spectacular scenery, but also an opportunity to golf in mature forests and on large, undulating greens. The drive from south west Calgary is less than half an hour. The course consists of two 18-hole courses named “RAVEN” and “HAWK”. The Club has progressed to its present form in stages.

The golf course has rolling, tree-lined fairways, native flowers and abundant wildlife. This renovation allowed the Club to host the LPGA duMaurier Classic in 1999.
