Far Away From Home Series
Get ready to tee off in the breathtaking beauty of British Columbia! The Women’s Public Links Golf Association invites you to this year’s FAFH “Far Away From Home” Tournament—a scenic and competitive golf experience like no other.
This special WPLGA series brings players together for scenic rounds, carefree play, and lighthearted competition among fellow WPLGA members at three top courses in the region—with two optional days (three rounds total) for those who just can’t get enough.

Located just minutes from Whistler Village, Nicklaus North is framed by glacier-fed Green Lake, lush pine forests, and snow-capped mountains. The course offers a thoughtful layout that challenges skilled players while remaining playable for all levels—thanks to its generous fairways, strategic bunkers, and true-rolling greens. A favorite among golfers worldwide, this is where mountain golf meets iconic design.
