While the club was incorporated in October of 1903, it was actually the result of the members of the Riverside Polo and Golf Club (1896) wanting a premier club at which to play. The club is therefore considered a founding member of the Southern California Golf Association (1899). Charles Maud, the first president of the SCGA, laid out the original nine holes. Walter Fovarque was the course architect when a full eighteen holes was opened in 1920, and Max Behr re-designed the course in 1923. Behr’s effort was lauded by golf course architect George Thomas in his book, Golf Architecture in America. Behr’s design today is complemented by a picturesque setting amidst large Italian Stone Pines, California Peppers and large Oak trees. In 2005 the members added many new improvements to the course’s infrastructure. The Victoria Lakes were built between holes 12 and 17 to hold a seven million gallon irrigation reservoir and a new state of the art Toro irrigation system was installed to supply water to the course. Looking to improve Victoria’s water source, a new well was drilled and a new pump installed which can deliver up to 1.5 million gallons of water to Victoria Lakes over a 24-hour period. The creek running through the golf course was stablized by installing fourteen check dams with gabion bank structures to prevent erosion and maintain the beautiful eco-system existing within the Arroyo. New cart paths compliment these improvements. The course has hosted such premier events as U.S. Open qualifying, U.S. Amateur, Mid-Amateur and Senior Amateur qualifying, Southern California Amateur and Mid-Amateur qualifying. In 2007, Victoria Club hosted the Southern California Amateur Championship. Course Details The Greens primarily consist of 85-90% Poa-Annua and 10-15% Bent Grass (120,000 SF).
