Dress Code

We would be grateful if all Members and Visitors would respect normal golf etiquette during play and meet our expectations for dress both on and off the course.

Dress standards shall be maintained at all times on the course, in the clubhouse and on the patio. In all circumstances gentlemen shall wear their shirts tucked into their trousers or shorts as appropriate.

On the course

Ladies – jeans and sun-tops with or without shoulder straps are not allowed. Sleeveless tops may be worn as long as they have a collar. Shorts are acceptable provided they are tailored and do not have “cargo” pockets.
Gentlemen and Ladies – must wear proper golf shoes either with spikes or soft studs. Other kinds of footwear such as training shoes are not permitted.
