The Brickyard Golf Club serves as the Mercer men's golf team's primary practice facility. One of the finest golf courses in Georgia, The Brickyard is conveniently located on the outskirts of Macon. The Brickyard Golf Club was built in 1961 by Charles “Chic’ Adams. It was formally Riverside Golf and Country Club prior to its purchase in December 2003 by brothers Kenneth and Alfred Sams Jr. The Sams brothers envisioned constructing a true championship caliber golf course for central Georgia that would commemorate their personal ties to Macon golf and contracted former PGA TOUR player Mark McCumber to redesign the golf course and all facilities.
Measuring over 7200 yards from the tips, the par 72 championship course is challenging for low handicappers.
