Golf Course Guidelines

Appropriate Dress

The Committee of Ballykisteen Golf Club are anxious that standards of dress are maintained at a high level, particularly in the club house, on the course and practice areas. To this end the committee seeks the full co-operation of all members and their guests to ensure that appropriate dress is worn at all times.

Please note that members have responsibility to ensure that their guests adhere to the dress code regulations while in the club house or on the course.

The Following Items are Unacceptable:

• Denim Jeans/Jackets (not acceptable on course)
• Untailored Shorts
• Tracksuits
• Trainers/Running Shoes
• Collarless and Sleeveless Shirts
• Tee Shirts
• Football and Rugby Jerseys
• Trousers must not be tucked into socks

The Committee has been asked to draw these regulations to the attention of those persons who are unsuitably dressed. It is expected that the implementation of this code will be effected with courtesy and common sense.
