 A Brief History of Rochford Hundred Golf Club 

It would be a daunting, not to say impossible task to embrace almost one hundred and twenty years of a golf club in just a few paragraphs. During those years members have played thousands and thousands of rounds of golf, personalites have come and gone and ever changing captains and committees have contributed innumerable hours to make the sport a continuing possibility at Rochford Hundred Golf Club.  All that can reasonably be achieved is to skim over the fairways of time  and just drop in occasionally on important happenings and special moments with, perhaps recognition of a little trivia here and there to prove that this club has long had a heart and soul.

The following extracts are from the excellent and very much larger 1993 Rochford Hundred Golf Club Centenary brochure. Where appropriate additional information has been added that may not have been available to the authors at that time. Please enjoy your meander through this snapshot of Rochford Hundred Golf Club's history.
