Welcome Royal Norwich is a traditional members’ golf club situated close to the heart of Norfolk’s county town. The club is blessed with a challenging 18-hole course designed by the famous course architect James Braid which plays to 6,506 yards, par 72, off the white tees. Our picturesque course, which is rarely closed for play due to its excellent drainage, boasts stunning views while providing a fair test for golfers of all abilities. The spacious bar (including sports bar) and dining facilities provide a welcoming and convivial atmosphere to enjoy the full range of services available to members and visitors alike. We welcome golf societies and are experts at organising corporate golf days.
With its rich tradition a cornerstone of the club, Royal Norwich is committed to remaining true to its past but also equally focused on evolving to ensure it looks after its members of today and those of tomorrow, with a commitment to introducing young people to the game. Leading magazine Golf Monthly recently voted us among their Top 100 Hidden Gems in the UK and Ireland. If you have yet to discover us we would be delighted if you paid us a visit, for a round at Royal Norwich is one that lives long in the memory.
Royal Norwich Golf Club was founded in 1893 with Royal patronage being granted in the same year by the Duke of York. The club is rightly proud of its golfing history having produced its own Open Champion, Arthur Havers, and it continues to produce golfers of a high calibre.

A History of Royal Norwich Golf Club The Royal Norwich Golf Club was formed on November 8, 1893 and the then Duke of York (the future King George V) kindly consented to become Patron of the Club. The club’s emblem was therefore designed around the white rose of York and this is still reflected in its logo today. The original land, sufficient for a 9-hole course measuring 2,920 yards, was purchased from the Gurney Trustees for the sum of £1,800 and the funds for this were raised by offering £10 debenture shares at 4 per cent 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 December 31, 1893. The course was opened on St Andrew’s Day, November 30, 1893 and the first medal competition was held on January 25, 1894, with the winning net score being 51.

Royal Norwich Golf Club
The official opening of the club was held on February 1, 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 nine-hole layout measuring 2,425 yards, which was officially opened on March 24, 1894. This shorter course was made available ‘as the main links are too arduous for the gentler sex’ (the Committee’s Report to the ‘Easter Meeting’ of members held on March 19, 1894, as quoted in the Eastern Daily Press the next day). Within six months of being founded the Royal Norwich Golf Club had attracted over 300 members and appointed its first Professional, Richard Kelly, in January 1894. The first club match, against Royal Worlington and Newmarket Golf Club at home, was played on July 12, 1894, Royal Norwich winning the 9-a-side contest by a 15-holes-up margin.
Around the turn of the century several golfing greats played in exhibition matches at Royal Norwich, including Jack White of North Berwick and all three members of the great triumvirate - James Braid, J.H. Taylor and Harry Vardon who between them dominated The Open Championship from 1894 to 1914. In September 1921, Arthur Havers, younger son of the steward and born within a stone’s throw of the course, returned to Norwich for an exhibition match against Vardon. Havers achieved golfing fame by qualifying for the Open Championship when he was only 16 and was to win the Open in 1923. After the dynamic activity of the early months of the club’s founding, the following years witnessed a period of consolidation and steady development leading up to the outbreak of World War I. When golfing activity resumed following the ending of hostilities, Royal Norwich embarked
upon a scheme to improve and extend the course. A redesign was undertaken by James Braid in 1923 and resulted in eight new greens and the extending of the course to 6,399 yards. These changes have survived to the present day with only some minor alterations. The course escaped largely unscathed as a result of the Second World War, though the warhead of a disintegrating V2 rocket exploded on impact on the 7th hole, leaving a shallow crater evident today beside the first left-side bunker. The club had been unable to celebrate its Golden Jubilee in 1943 due to the war and its finances had suffered badly during that period. A number of legacies and personal contributions from members soon restored the club’s finances, although the annual subscription had increased to 10 guineas by 1952!

A History of Royal Norwich Golf Club Continued... 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, and Mrs Peggy Carrick, who was an England international and won the Norfolk Ladies Championship on no fewer than eight occasions.
There have been ongoing improvements to both the course and the clubhouse, although in the former’s case we have tried to maintain its character in the tradition true to the memory of James Braid.
The highlight of the club’s more recent history was the celebration of its centenary in 1993. Guests from over more than 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.

...Gowns for all budgets and occasions.
About the Course Royal Norwich has a beautiful and historic tree-lined course that is regarded as one of the best not only in the county but in the whole of the East of England. It stretches to 6,506 yards off the championship tees and a Standard Scratch Score matching the par of 72 provides a fair indication that our layout offers a fair challenge to even the most proficient of golfers. Every skill in a player’s armoury is put to the test. Drives must avoid the vegetation or risk inflating one’s score, approach shots need to be threaded through greens well guarded by strategically-placed bunkers and the putting surfaces themselves, although true-running and immaculate, contain some subtle borrows.
There are no weak holes – truly – but one of the highlights is undoubtedly the 13th, a downhill par 4 which is driveable for the best players but where you can just as easily walk off with a six. Then there is the 8th, which has largely remained unchanged since the day the course first opened in 1893. Play this hole and take a moment to consider the great players whose footsteps you are following in, such as Harry Vardon, James Braid and former Royal Norwich member, Arthur Havers, who won the Open Championship in 1923.
There is the opportunity for the better player to work the ball both ways off the tee and with raised greens and downhill shots too, the thinking golfer who does not stick rigidly to his yardage charts will be rewarded.

Take the Course Tour If you have never played Royal Norwich before you are in for a treat. Make the most of your trip by learning about some of the pitfalls that lie in wait and how to avoid them as you follow our course tour. Hole 1 (Road Out) 164 yards, par 3 - The 1st, a hole with a well-guarded green, provides a testing tee shot as the first stroke of the round. Hole 2 (Corner Pocket) 463 yards, par 4 - 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. Hole 3 (Redan) 331 yards, par 4 - Trouble again lies to the left in the case of the tee shot, with the second shot requiring a pitch up to an elevated green. Hole 4 (Quarry Out) 365 yards, par 4 - The 4th is a dogleg left, leaving a pitch shot over cross-bunkers immediately in front of the green, with little margin for error in a following wind. Beware of golfers playing from the 8th Tee. Hole 5 (Eastward Ho) 399 yards, par 4 - 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 yards is never easy and a firm second to the heart of the green is needed. Hole 6 (Quarry In) 373 yards, par 4 - 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 (Westward Ho) 469 yards, par 5 - The 7th, for it stretches to 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 8 (The Glade) 408 yards, par 4 - A delightful hole, 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’. Beware golfers playing from the 4th Tee. Hole 9 (The Wood) 129 yards, par 3 - The 9th is an attractive hole of 129 yards, with a green, re-laid and reshaped in 1987, surrounded by fir trees. The course has only three par 3’s, and this is the shortest. 13 Royal Norwich Golf Club

Take the Course Tour Continued... Hole 10 (Road In) 483 yards, par 5 - 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 ‘borrows’. Hole 11 (Devil’s Punch Bowl) 398 yards, par 4 - 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 but is in a hollow which gathers a reasonably straight shot. Hole 12 (Paradise) 198 yards, par 3 - 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, even for the best players. Hole 13 (Hades) 328 yards, par 4 - The par 4 13th, 328 yards downhill from a high tee, threatens 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. Hole 14 (King Solomon’s Mine) 349 yards, par 4 - 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. The hardest hole
on the scorecard, if you make four you can be well satisfied. Hole 15 (The Whinney) 389 yards, par 4 - 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 16 (The Bank) 352 yards, par 4 - 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 uphill-sloping 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. Hole 17 (Drayton) 493 yards, par 5 - The 17th, a par 5 hole of 493 yards, is 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. Hole 18 (Home Green) 415 yards, par 4 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.

Braid Membership Named after our legendary course designer, the Braid Membership is the perfect membership for those either

Competitive Golf Opportunities Continued... The men enter one team in the Norfolk Men’s Scratch League, which features a round-robin competition played by teams of five players followed by a finals day for the six teams progressing through the group stage. Royal Norwich has an excellent pedigree in this competition, having won it no less than six times since its inception in 1985. The Ladies have their own Scratch League competition played between April and October each year, though its format is slightly different from the men’s. Teams consist of three players, a trophy is awarded to the winner of each division and there is active promotion and relegation between the divisions. The club has won the NLCGA League Shield six times since the League’s launch in 1961, the last time in 2010 which saw a particularly memorable year for Royal Norwich as between them Nickie Clarke, Rebecca Heeles, Jenny Hide, Sadie Lines and Sam Martin almost swept the board in all
the county’s premier competitions, with Hide becoming the youngest ever Norfolk champion. Success has been a familiar story. The Gillieson Cup, an inter-club foursomes knockout competition, featuring three pairs per team, has been won seven times since its inception in 1956. The Carrick Cup scratch foursomes were won in their first year, 1979, and in 1982, 1983, 1985 and 2000. The cup returned to Royal Norwich in 2010 thanks to Sam Martin and Rebecca Heeles, who won all their matches despite having to play every round away from home. The pair then repeated their achievement in 2011 with a dramatic victory over Barnham Broom at the 20th hole. The Ladies also enter the Mail on Sunday team competition, as well as the Daily Mail Foursomes, two prestigious and long-running national events.

Visitors and Societies While Royal Norwich is a private members’ club, we do warmly welcome visitors and golfing societies and extend an invitation to come and enjoy our hospitality. With our immaculate and historic golf course, our exceptional catering team and our professional and attentive staff we are confident that your day with us will be most enjoyable. Our current green fee rates can be seen on our website, but we think you will be pleasantly surprised by their modest nature and equally thrilled by the challenge presented before you by our James Braid-designed course. Reduced rates are available for those with a county golf card (weekdays only), members’ guests, juniors and those able to play at quieter times late in the day.
Whatever your budget or your dietary requirements, there is a society day that is right for you, and the team here at the Royal Norwich Golf Club know exactly how to ensure your guests are entertained. In our opinion no Society Golf Day is the same, and with this firmly in mind we prefer to tailor our packages and prices to meet your needs. Working closely with the team here at Royal Norwich Golf Club we can ensure that your golf day is nothing short of a great success. Having said that, some organisers prefer the simplicity of being offered several set options and we are happy to oblige here, too.
Society organisers can be assured of a favourable reaction from their golfing group by arranging a trip to Royal Norwich.

Corporate Golf Royal Norwich is an ideal choice as the venue for your corporate golf day. From the moment you first call us to the completion of your day you will have our undivided attention. Nothing is too much trouble and your satisfaction is guaranteed. We prefer not to offer packages because we feel every group that comes to us is different and given the choice, with a blank canvas as a starting point, no two golf days would end up being identical. Instead, we very much prefer if you come to us to discuss your specific needs and we will do our best to accommodate, right down to the very smallest detail. We are proud to have the word Royal in our title and we hope anyone who enjoys our hospitality on a corporate day here will feel they have been royally treated.
You will not feel like you are just another golfing group. Our reputation rests on your recommendation and that means everything to us. So if you don’t know where to start, come to us and let us help plan your day. Whether you are looking for 18, 27 or 36 holes, a combination of breakfast, lunch and evening meal (or all three), refreshments half-way round, assisting your guests with filling in their scorecards, a clinic from our professional or helping with your prize presentation, we would be delighted to assist. Whenever you need someone dependable to turn to to make sure your day is one to remember, we will be here every step of the way. Give us enough notice and we can even arrange to have a selection of golfing merchandise available sporting your company logo – one sure way to ensure your golf day lives long in the memory of the participants.
