DRESS CODE

Golf is steeped in tradition. For many decades golf has been seen as an elitist, exclusive and even stuffy sport with too many rules and a strict unwavering dress code.

At Brynhill Golf Club, we are extremely proud of our heritage but are equally proud of our modern approach. We have embraced the need for a more relaxed approach to the dress code in order for our sport to continue to thrive and become welcoming to everyone. However, etiquette and social respect both on and off the golf course remain important elements of our culture. Please see below for the up to date dress code policy.

If you notice a dress code violation, please report it to the pro shop or office, where it will be appropriately addressed. We kindly ask that members and visitors refrain from approaching others about their attire. All dress code matters should be handled by the PGA professionals in the pro shop or club staff. The dress code below is clear, however if you are in doubt please ask in the pro shop.
