Golf in Champion Heights

Champion Heights is a Trumbull County community in the greater Warren-Youngstown corridor of northeastern Ohio, where the residential fabric of the former steel country has adapted to the economic transition that followed the contraction of heavy manufacturing. Trumbull County's position in the Mahoning Valley economic region connects it to the Youngstown labor market and the recreational traditions of a working-class community that has maintained its cultural institutions through decades of industrial change. The recreational golf culture of the Mahoning Valley, including Champion Heights, reflects a community that found in the game both social connection and competitive outlet during the long decades of industrial employment and the slower-paced community life that followed the mills' closure.
