Norm Holland
Norman Bannerman Holland OBE (24 March 1924 – 30 November 2014) was a New Zealand jockey.

He went on to win the New Zealand jockeys' premiership three times—in 1945–46, 1947-48 and 1951-52— and finished second on a further three occasions. He retired from riding in 1974, having ridden over 900 winners.
