Dress Code and Mobile Phone Use

Dress Code and Use of Mobile Telephones

Great Barr Golf Club is a modern club, but we pride ourselves in maintaining many traditional standards.  In recent years several changes have been made to relax the dress code, particularly for the clubhouse. However, members and visitors are requested to comply with the reasonable requirements for dress and use of mobile phones listed below.

ON THE GOLF COURSE

For the avoidance of any doubt:

        Golf shirts should have a collar. However, we will also allow rounded and turtleneck tops that are clearly golf shirt brands.

        Shirts must be tucked into shorts or trousers

        Football style or other sports clothing is not acceptable

        Sleeveless shirts or T-shirts are not acceptable

        Denims or track-suit bottoms are not allowed.

        Recognised golf shoes must be worn, no trainers or any other form of sports or leisure shoe are acceptable.

        Socks must be worn and may be of any colour or length.

        Shorts must be tailored, without external ‘cargo style’ pockets

        No beach style or ¾-length leisure type shorts are not acceptable.

        Hoodies of any kind, including golf hoodies, are not allowed on the golf course.

 

LADIES

       ●        Shirts can be sleeveless and must be tucked in at the waist unless specifically designed to be worn outside a waistband.

        Ladies may also wear cropped golf trousers and skorts (skirts with integral shorts underneath).

 

The Head Professional and his team have the full authority to ensure the above dress rules are followed. Please do not cause embarrassment for yourself or them by non compliance.

 

 IN THE CLUBHOUSE AND PATIO AREA

For the avoidance of any doubt:

        Dress should be smart.

        Smart denims are acceptable.

        Tailored shorts are acceptable.

        Golf shirts must be tucked into tailored shorts or trousers.

        Shirts designed to be worn outside the waistband of trousers or jeans are acceptable.

        Smart, clean trainers are acceptable.

        Sandals without socks, and deck shoes are acceptable.

        Hats, caps and visors must be removed indoors.

        Waterproofs, wet or dirty clothing are not acceptable.

        Tracksuits, T-shirts, football shirts, gym wear are not acceptable.

        Hoodies of any kind, including golf hoodies, are not allowed in the clubhouse.

        Flip flops, Crocs and sliders are not acceptable.

        Golf shoes that have been worn on the course (including trainer style golf shoes) are not acceptable in the Clubhouse or on the patio.

 

This dress code does not apply to any member, guest or visitor at a private event, to Staff members who are at work and children under 15.

 

MOBILE PHONES

 

        Use of mobile phones on the course is strictly discouraged, other than for genuine emergencies. Phones must remain on silent/vibrate

        Mobile phones may be kept on silent/vibrate in the Clubhouse and on the patio. However, if you have to make or receive a phone call we would ask that you are courteous to other members and take the call away from the patio and main lounges.

 

The Clubhouse Manager and Clubhouse team have the full authority to ensure the above dress rules are followed. Please do not cause embarrassment for yourself or them by non compliance.
