Dress Code

Dress Policy & Club Information

‘The Board’ have determined that the following regulations will apply with immediate effect and will be revised and/or amended annually if necessary.

As the world continues to change at ever quickening speeds around us, at Calcot Park Golf Club we firmly believe that if we are to continue to have a thriving and active membership, we will be best served by simply asking everyone to follow the guidelines stated within this code.

Principles

These dress rules are for the guidance of members, guests and visitors, and are intended to be open, understandable, workable, and to be consistent with standards of dress considered acceptable at modern-day Golf Clubs.

The rules are not intended to be fully prescriptive, and are in some cases open to interpretation, but Members are expected to take personal responsibility for observing standards of dress that reflect well on themselves and Calcot Park Golf Club.

Golf attire means clothes that are generally available for purchase in professional's shops or similar.

Members guests, visitors, visiting societies, visiting teams and those participating in open competitions are required to comply with these dress rules. It is up to Members for their individual guests, Team Captains for visiting teams, the General Manager and Professional Staff for societies and visitors to ensure they advised accordingly.

Golfers should change their clothing and footwear in the locker rooms and preferably not in the car park.

The Course includes the range, all practice areas and practice putting greens.

Practice on the 18-Hole Golf Course

Single players only are allowed to play a maximum of two golf balls on the 18-hole Golf Course for practice purposes, and only when pace of play conditions allow. From fairway to green, both balls shall be played as they lie and it is not permitted to hit practice shots from the same location with both balls, as this causes unnecessary co-located divots and turf damage. On the Green, players are to ensure that that all pitch marks created from their shots, hit with the two balls in play, are properly repaired.
