Description

In July of 1891, the first ever meeting of the committee of what is now Lindrick Golf Club met to consider the formation of a Golf Club, and to consider a number of potential sites. Later that month it was agreed that the course should be sited on Lindrick Common and within 3 months the course was open. The first competition was played on 9 April 1892 over 9 holes; it was won by William Jessop with a gross 74, less full handicap allowance of 45, giving a net score of 29. The original results sheet can be seen in the Billiards Room. In December of that year the Club professional holed in one at the 130 yard 7th "using Sir W Dalrymple's hammer headed club and a Slazenger ball". The club was originally named The Sheffield and District Golf Club, but this was changed in 1934 and the full name of the club is now "Lindrick Golf Club (Sheffield and District)".
