Richmond Park Golf Club is a friendly club that has been enjoyed by its many current and former members since it was established in 1924. The Club is an independent ‘private golf club’ that plays on the adjoining Duke’s and Prince’s public golf courses at Richmond Park. For those not used to this type of arrangement it is correct to say that there are hundreds of similar golf clubs operating in this way up and down the country.
The Club is affiliated to England Golf and Surrey Golf, thereby ensuring that the handicaps of members are recognised officially both in the UK and internationally.
The Club’s membership varies from year to year but recently the Club has grown to about 280 members of whom 250 are men and 30 are women. The profile of the membership is too varied to describe but suffice it to say that we have a full mixture of golfers from many different walks of life, and a good representation of members from overseas.
At present, the Club is welcoming new members – both men and women – with the aim of continuing the recent positive membership trend and to grow to over 350 members.
