TGGC is a private members golf club. Founded in 1908, it is one of Wiltshire... Founded in 1908, Tidworth Golf Club bears the signature of renowned golf course architect H.S. Colt... The intention to build a golf course was lodged with the R&A in 1904. It is likely that it was not pursued at the time because the Garrison Commander had allocated to each of his commanding officers areas of land for their regiment's soldiers to construct football and cricket pitches - most of which remain in use today. Priority was of course given to these over the building of a golf course.The Golf Club was founded in 1908, when a 9 hole Course was built on training land on the western edge of Tidworth using soldier and some local labour.
