Jorhat Gymkhana Club

Jorhat Gymkhana Club, built by D. Simons in 1876, is a sports venue in Jorhat focused on horseracing, lawn tennis, billiards, swimming, and polo, along with a gentleman's bar and a cinema theatre. Dating back to the British era, the club is the site for the Governor's Cup event every year and has served as a venue for horse racing for over 140 years.

In the 1870s, this area was used as a tea garden and there was no area for recreational activities for the British or locals. As a result, the foundation of this club was laid, making the 9-circuit golf course one of this club the oldest golf courses in Asia. The original club was located in the middle of the racecourse serving as a parade ground and camping area. However, the club was relocated and the present club was established in 1885. This Club is known for organising C.K Naidu’s Under-19 Cricket Tournament and the ground here, called Jorhat Gymkhana Club Ground has a capacity of 8000, has a turf wicket and is used by Khelmati Sports Club for Cricket.
