Valhalla, the great hall described in Norse mythology where the souls of Vikings feasted and celebrated with the gods, is now the namesake of a modern paradise for championship golf. Valhalla Golf Club is the culmination of Dwight Gahm's dream to build a world‑class course capable of hosting a major golf championship. Our vision is to become one of the premier golf clubs in the country with a Championship golf experience unlike any other in the world.

Our mission is to provide a memorable golf experience that gives you a taste of championship history and southern hospitality you can only get in Kentucky. Valhalla is a Jack Nicklaus‑design that has ranked among Golf Digest's "America's 100 Greatest Courses" for almost 30 consecutive years. With nearly 500 acres stretching across rolling hills and a breathtaking golf theater, it has become one of golf's most storied venues hosting numerous major championships.

The golf course and property showcase the Commonwealth of Kentucky with our horse fencing along Bluegrass Way, our exposed natural limestone (which makes the bourbon smoother and our horses faster in Kentucky), and the distinctly Southern attributes of our clubhouse to name just a few. We present a fast, firm, and fun on‑course experience for our members and their guests with a unique brand of Kentucky Southern hospitality.

As an AIT, you will join a team dedicated to creating Championship quality conditions for members and guests on a daily basis and become the nucleus of a team that will be hosting the 2028 Solheim Cup. AITs will learn important aspects of agronomy, crew management, budget management, tournament prep, career advancement and the list goes on and on. AITs will be involved in every aspect of the Agronomy Team at Valhalla, working closely with interns, assistants and superintendent.

The ultimate goal is to professionally develop you as a turfgrass manager in the Golf Course Industry and help create a path for your successful career.
