Belcher was the son of George Frederick Belcher (Mayor of Geelong) and attended Geelong Grammar School where he captained the school football team. Belcher played two games for Geelong in 1899 before joining the army and serving with the Australian Commonwealth Horse mounted infantry unit in the Second Boer War.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Boer War Nominal Roll - Edward Norman Belcher )〕 Upon his return in 1902, he again played for Geelong but transferred to Essendon for the 1904 VFL season.
