Old Greshamians > Clubs and Societies

A Gresham’s education enables our pupils to develop in a huge variety of areas and we have a tradition of producing outstanding achievers in all walks of life, creating architects, diplomats, engineers, musicians and many more. See the menu on the left to find out more about just some of our Old Greshamians. A list of our Military Roll of Honours is featured in our Archives Section.

OG Rifle Establishment

OGRE membership is open to any former members of the Gresham’s Rifle Club who want to join this large and very active group of shooters. This group, popular with OGs of all ages and abilities, engages in an eventful full-bore season, participating in a range of NRA events in addition to matches versus the current school rifle team. The Club also have their own residence at Bisley, which new members are entitled to use free of charge. Associate Memberships are available to individuals who no longer actively shoot, but are keen to keep involved with the sport.

Whether you are somewhere between the couch and 5k or a seasoned marathoner you are all welcome in the OG Running Club. The core annual event for the Club is the Round Norfolk Relay (RNR) race in September which involves 17 runners covering 198 miles around the Norfolk county boundary. Other regular events include the Cambridge Half Marathon and linking in with the informal RAGs (Runners at Gresham’s) parents group at the Prep School. Details of upcoming events can be found on our facebook page. If you are interested in competing in the RNR, connecting with other OG runners or joining us on some mindful coastal trials please contact Howard Olby.
