In July 1882, the club received a letter from the honorary secretary of the Calcutta Golf Club offering them the gift of a "handsome silver Kashmir Cup", which was delivered a year later. Owing to the magnificent appearance of the trophy, the Club dropped their original proposal to use it as a second prize to the George Glennie Medal. Instead, it would be awarded in a handicap matchplay competition. The Cup was first played for in 1885. In 1921, the competition format was changed to a foursomes handicap matchplay tournament."

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In 1838 John Murray Belshes told the Spring Meeting that the Dowager Queen Adelaide had consented to become Patroness of the Club and at that year's Autumn Meeting he announced that Her Majesty had presented a handsome medal as a mark of her approbation - with a request that it should be worn by the captain on all public occasions. Yet the medal was not immediately associated with the driving in of the new Captain and 14 years later Belshes pointed out that the medal had been given for the purpose of distinguishing the Captain in office. From 1853 onwards the Captain has been awarded the Queen Adelaide Medal for playing a single shot in the Challenge for the Silver Club by the act of the driving in ceremony.

In July 1882, the club received a letter from the honorary secretary of the Calcutta Golf Club offering them the gift of a "handsome silver Kashmir Cup", which was delivered a year later. Owing to the magnificent appearance of the trophy, the Club dropped their original proposal to use it as a second prize to the George Glennie Medal. Instead, it would be awarded in a handicap matchplay competition. The Cup was first played for in 1885. In 1921, the competition format was changed to a foursomes handicap matchplay tournament."
