For the first time, Alberta Golf heads to Coloniale Golf Club for the 2026 Men’s Super Senior. This two-day event takes place on September 3rd and 4th in Beaumont. With a large field and many past Alberta Golf Champions, it is set to be an exciting tournament.
The Event
The Men’s Super Senior became its own event separate from the Men’s Senior four years ago due to high demand. There are no qualifiers for this tournament; however, players do require a Handicap Index of 30.0 or less. The level of competition is high despite no qualifiers as many players have competed in—and won—Alberta Golf events in past years. Players must be 65 or older as of the first day of the Canadian Men’s Senior, and 75 or older to be eligible for the Diamond Division.
Similar to the Men and Women’s Senior Championships held earlier this summer, this event is another opportunity to bring friends together before winter hits and golf takes a pause in Alberta. Many of these players have been competing with one another for many years, so this event is a good way to reconnect.
The Course
Coloniale Golf Club is a new host for Alberta Golf, but it is already clear that this course will pose challenges for the players. Located just south of Edmonton, Coloniale features an 18-hole links style course designed to be played by players of all skill levels. With beautiful lakes and bunkers throughout, it is easy to get caught up in the view, but these features contribute to the challenge of the course. In addition to the course, Coloniale features a practice facility and restaurant to fulfill your needs before and after your round. Coloniale has regularly received a “4 Star Rating” from Golf Digest’s Places to Play proving their high standards.
