Norman Bannerman Holland OBE (24 March 1924 – 30 November 2014) was a New Zealand jockey. Born in Barrow-in-Furness, England, in 1924, Holland emigrated to New Zealand on the Ruahine with his father and brother in 1929, and settled in Taranaki. After leaving school at the age of 13, Holland was an apprentice jockey with Oney Cox at Hawera, and rode his first race in 1940. 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.
