BRIEF HISTORY:
Durban, being the closest sea-side resort to Johannesburg, has long
been a popular holiday resort for the population of the Reef area. This resulted
in a frequent migration of Jo'burg golfers to the coast to play golf
over long weekends; many of these were Nomads in the, then, relatively newly
formed Transvaal Nomads Golf Club.
From the strong associations formed during several Nomads visits 13 Durban
golfers were given the go-ahead to form a Natal Club in September 1963.
After a somewhat slow start, the Nomads concept gradually caught on and with
plenty of encouragement from Transvaal, Natal forged ahead.
