The Club’s History The Royal Norwich Golf Club was founded on the 8th November 1893, when the then Duke of York (the future King George V) kindly consented to become Patron of the Club. The Club’s emblem was designed around the white rose of York. The original land, sufficient for a 9-hole course measuring 2,920 yards, was purchased from the Gurney Trust for the sum of £1,800 and the funds for this were raised by offering £10 debenture shares at 4% interest. The Club’s operating costs were to be covered by membership entrance fees and annual subscriptions, with the latter fixed at one guinea each for those joining before the 31 December 1893. The course was opened on St Andrew’s Day, 30 November 1893, and the first medal competition was held on 25 January 1894, the winning net score being 51. The official opening of the Club was held on 1 February 1894 and by this time 18 holes had been constructed measuring 4,925 yards. Lady members were able to play either the full 18-hole course or a specially selected 9 holes measuring 2,425 yards, which was officially opened on 24 March 1894. Within six months of being founded the Royal Norwich Golf Club had attracted over 300 members and they appointed their first Professional, Richard Kelly, in January 1894. They played their first club match against Royal Worlington and Newmarket Golf Club at home on 12 July 1894, winning the 9-a-side contest by a 15-holes-up margin.

James Braid
The Club’s History
continued
The course was requisitioned during World War 1 and when golfing activity resumed following the ending of the war, Royal Norwich embarked upon a scheme to improve and extend the course in 1923. The re-design of the course was undertaken by James Braid and resulted in the layout of 8 new greens, extending the length of the course to 6,399 yards. These changes have survived to the present day with only minor alterations. The Club is proud to have hosted a number of national golfing events during its history and to have produced golfers of a high calibre. Notable amongst these is Arthur Perowne, who represented Great Britain in the Walker Cup on three occasions, Open Champion, Arthur Havers and Mrs Peggy Carrick, who was an England international and won the Norfolk Ladies Championship on no fewer than 8 occasions. The highlight of the Club’s more recent history was the celebration of its Centenary in 1993. Guests from over 40 other Royal Clubs from around the world attended the week of celebrations, and the Club was privileged to enjoy the company of HRH The Duke of York at the Centenary Banquet.

The Course - Hole by Hole
“
A course displaying the many characteristics of the great Braid’s work
”
Despite its age the course measures a healthy 6,506 yards from the medal tees, with par set at 72; the Ladies par is 73 playing 5818 yards. The course opens up rather unusually, with a par 3. This is the only hole on the front nine on the westward side of Drayton Road. Not necessarily the most difficult opening hole sandwiched between the 18th green, the Clubhouse and putting green. Royal Norwich is an entertaining and engaging course with a fine collection of holes, tips for which you can pick up in the guide following. HOLE 1 - 164 YDS PAR 3 Road Out The 1st, a hole with a well-guarded green, provides a testing tee shot as the first stroke of the round.
HOLE 2 463 YDS PAR 4 Corner Pocket
HOLE 3 331 YDS PAR 4 Redan
The 2nd tee lies over the Drayton Road, leading to a splendid hole of 463 yards, a stiff par 4. The drive is especially important and a pull must be avoided, as ‘The Grave’, a deep hollow surrounded by trees, lies to the left with the ground beyond also falling away leftward. A long drive calls for a second shot from a downhill lie to the sloping green bunkered left and right.
Trouble again lies to the left in the case of the tee shot, with the second shot requiring a pitch to an elevated green.

The Course - Hole by Hole HOLE 4 365 YDS PAR 4 Quarry Out
yards is never easy and a firm second to the heart of the green is needed.
HOLE 8 408 YDS PAR 4 The Glade
Roughly the same distance as the 3rd hole being a par 4 of 365 yards. The 4th is a dog-leg left, leaving a pitch over cross-bunkers immediately in front of the green, with little margin for error in a following wind.
HOLE 6 373 YRDS PAR 4 Quarry In
A delightful hole of 408 yards, the only original hole on the course, and one of the best. Down an attractive valley with gorse and wood on the left, the 8th’s special feature is a layer green between two banks, with trees either side, a setting which inspired its name, ‘The Glade’.
HOLE 5 399 YDS PAR 4 Eastward Ho The 5th presents one of the most exacting drives on the course, with a straight boundary hedge on the left and ground sloping up to the right on the right-hand side of the fairway, the slope being topped by gorse bushes. Even with a good straight drive, this hole at 399
At the two-shot 373 yard 6th hole the drive is to a higher-level flat fairway, which it is essential to reach to have a proper chance of getting home in two. HOLE 7 469 YDS PAR 5 Westward Ho The 7th, for its 469 yards from the back tee, calls for length and direction of shot, a good drive and correct placing of the second shot among bunkers at various distances being essential to achieve the par of 5.
HOLE 9 129 YDS PAR 3 The Wood The 9th is an attractive hole of 129 yards, with a green, re-laid and re-shaped in 1987-88, surrounded by pine trees. The course has only three par 3’s, and this is the shortest.

The Course - Hole by Hole HOLE 10 483 YDS PAR 5 Road In
HOLE 12 198 YDS PAR 3 Paradise
HOLE 14 349 YDS PAR 4 King Solomon’s Mine
The second nine starts with a drive from a high tee to a fairway in a valley. The 10th hole, 483 yards and par 5, then turns uphill to the right, finishing with a kidney-shaped green sloping left to right with varied ‘burrows’.
The short 12th hole is one of 198 yards, the green exposed to the elements atop Rabbit’s Hill, with bunkers left and right. This is no easy par 3 for the best players.
The 14th is a strong uphill two-shotter of 349 yards, with a fairway cross-bunker restricting the longest drivers and a green on the crest of a rise with bunkers on each side.
HOLE 13 328 YDS PAR 4 Hades
HOLE 15 389 YDS PAR 4 The Whinney
The par 4 13th, 328 yards downhill from a high tee, with trouble from bushes and trees for any but a well-flighted and well-directed tee shot. The green itself requires a skilful second shot for the ball to hold, without running away off its banked edges.
The splendid sweeping, open 15th hole, measuring 389 yards, requires a tee shot down the left of the fairway to open the green for the second shot. This approach avoids the deep pit just short of the green to the right.
HOLE 11 398 YDS PAR 4 Devil’s Punch Bowl Back across the Drayton Road, the 398 yard 11th dog-legs to the left with the elbow guarded by a tall oak. The green cannot be seen for the second stroke which is in a hollow and gathers a reasonably straight shot.

The Course - Hole by Hole HOLE 16 352 YDS PAR 4 The Bank
HOLE 17 493 YDS PAR 5 Drayton
HOLE 18 415 YDS PAR 4 Home Green
The 16th hole of 352 yards is another fine hole, crossing the same pit from the tee as the 15th. A bunker which eats into the left front of the green demands a well pitched-up second shot onto the uphillsloping green. The slope is sufficient to test the best of putters, particularly so as not to over-run the hole from the back of the green.
The 17th, a par 5 hole of 493 yards, the longest on the course but nevertheless reachable in two by longer hitters. Several well-placed bunkers to trap second shots must be avoided on this hole, which finishes with one of the course’s largest greens.
The 18th is a first class finishing hole of 415 yards which rewards the player whose second shot finds its way beyond bunkers left and right into the heart of the green
