Club Championships

The NOR Club Championships have been held annually since 2003 at a NOR District Event. Men (M16+) compete for the Barry Chilvers cup and women (W16+) for the Carol Towler salver, both trophies having been donated in memory of former NOR members.

The format of the competition is simple, with all men competing on the Green course and all women on the Light Green. A handicap, based on the relative lengths of courses advised in BOF guidelines for Regional events, is applied to the results to determine the winner.
