The lapel badge was similar to the Nomads badge we have now hanging from the name bar, but it consisted of a bell alone with a scroll at the top edge, with the legends Follow the Sun and Onthou 1939-1945 immediately above the bell. The background colours were yellow (sun) in the upper half and green (grass) in the lower half. The choice of the bell was prompted by a line from the Meditations of John Donne – For Whom the Bell Tolls – symbolizing remembrance of those who had lost their lives in World War II. This is now our creed.

Nomads uses the common ground presented to us in Golf to encourage and foster the development of life-long friendships, through which we can, as a collective band of like-minded individuals, foster involvement in the promotion of the game we love so much, as well as uplift the lives of those less fortunate within our own communities.

Nomads has very defined aims and objectives, which are as follows.

To provide an opportunity for persons of all walks of life to meet one another at least once a month, to play a game of golf and to make new and cement old friendships.
To encourage, promote, foster and support the game of golf.
To generate funds for distribution to charitable causes and assist those persons, regardless of race, colour or creed, in a less fortunate position than ourselves.
