History

Hugh Armstrong’s notice in the Tamworth Observer on 21st July 1899 marked the birth of Tamworth Golf Club. Dr. Hugh Armstrong, the club’s first Captain and Champion, led the formation. The first officials were elected on 31st July 1899, with annual subscriptions set at 10 shillings for gentlemen and 5 shillings for ladies.

The club’s first course was in East Tamworth, moving to West Tamworth in 1903. The club has since moved several times, finally settling at its current location in 1923. Over the years, the club has seen many developments, including the establishment of grass greens in 1934 and major clubhouse extensions in the 1980s and 1990s. The club has been served by notable professionals, including Terry Hanly and Terry Hayes.
