Sevilla Golf Course
The Sevilla Golf Course
in Couva is one of the most scenic,
picturesque, idyllic, challenging and
family oriented venues in the Caribbean.
This event would be held on April 30,
2006 at this time the Poui trees are
normally in full bloom, their bright,
beautiful yellow and purple flowers adds
an element of colour to the
surroundings. The meandering cane fields
bound the course in the East. Upon your
entry to Sevilla, the tall and
elegant palm trees line the entrance.
You can't help but recognize the tall
chimneys of the old Brechin Castle sugar
factory that adds to the nostalgia on
your way in.
The course contour is
uneven in parts, with slight rolling
hills, tight turns, that intersperse
at intervals with flat portions, it
all seems well calculated by nature to add
to the fun and challenge of a good cross
country course.
The perimeter of the
course is measured at 2.2 kilometres.
The portions from the start of the race,
to the beginning of the perimeter of the
golf course and from the golf course to
the finish line are 900 meters. Making
the total distance of 7.5 kilometres.
The main events are the
Men’s’ and Women’s races which require
the participants to go around the course
3 and 2 times respectively, and then
head for the finish line. In the other
events, the Walking Race, kids run and
the adult Fun Run, they are required to
go around the course once.
