Established in 1922 on a Norfolk Breckland Heath, just two miles from the town centre, the club expanded from 9 to 18 holes in 2001. This transformed the course into an attractive and demanding experience, enjoyable by all standards of player.
Some of the new holes were created from an area of mature woodland while others reflect the more open style of The Brecks and they have all matured to blend well with the older part of the course. The land is well drained, minimising the effects of heavy rainfall, and the only natural causes of course closure are ice, snow and thunderstorms.
Swaffham is a very friendly club, with a wide range of Mens, Seniors, Ladies and Mixed competitions. A similar range of friendly fixtures are played against clubs throughout the county. The club also enters teams in all the county league and knock-out competitions. Since becoming 18 holes, notable successes have been the winning of the Cullington Cup, a mens county knock-out competition in 2002 & 2004, and at the first attempt, the winning of the Ladies County Scratch League in 2003.
The quality of the 18 hole course is such that we host several corporate days, county fixtures and open days. Norfolk Charities regularly make Swaffham Golf Club their choice of venue for their fund raising golf days.
