Knock Golf Club
Sports Training in Belfast, County Antrim
The Knock Golf Club is one of the oldest in Belfast having celebrated its Centenary in 1995. In May1895, a group of eight gentlemen got together to create Knock Golf Club on a site adjacent to the old Knock Railway Station and opposite to what is now the Headquarters of the Police Service of Northern Ireland. The course was described as a very tiny 9-hole links. Within three years is was too tiny and land was leased in Shandon Park beneath the hill from which the area takes its name. This wooded scene is portrayed in the Club Crest. This course was a 9-hole and again in its time became too tiny.
