DRESS CODE & ETIQUETTE
Bristol & Clifton Golf Club aims to operate a contemporary and
forward-thinking dress policy which is appropriate for a modern
day members’ club, enabling members, their families and guests
to be able to play golf and enjoy their time in the Clubhouse, to
feel comfortable and welcome, whilst at the same time respecting
the standards expected in a private members golf club.
The principles leading to this revised policy for members, guests and visitors are to:
l
Demonstrate respect for the Club
l
Be compatible with the Rules of Golf
l
Maintain and improve good standards
l
Recognise changes in society and current dress fashion
l
Be simple enough to manage e昀昀ectively
Visitors to Bristol & Clifton Golf Club are therefore made aware that the following
are required standards that must be adhered to both on the golf course and in the
Clubhouse:
ON THE GOLF COURSE (including practice areas/putting greens) we do
accept fashion changes very quickly and our policy is that any smart, recognised
golf clothing and golf shoes with either soft or metal spikes or golf shoes with
dimples should be worn. Tailored shorts (not cargo style) may be worn with
coloured long or short socks and men’s shirts should be tucked in. Players may wear
hoodies provided they are manufactured by a recognised golf brand.
IN THE CLUBHOUSE, any smart casual clothing is acceptable although we
draw the line at caps, 昀氀ip 昀氀ops, beach style shorts and obtrusive football/rugby
shirts being worn. Smart denim wear is permitted within the Clubhouse and its
immediate vicinity but only if they are clean, and are free of any fraying, holes,
rips or tears. Shorts are permitted in the Dining Room on certain occasions but not
for formal functions. Dirty, muddy, soiled or wet clothing is not permitted in the
Clubhouse. Golf shoes may be worn in the Spike Bar. Shoes must not be removed
in the clubhouse.
