TEE TIME AVAILABILITY We are delighted to see so many of our members taking full advantage of their membership here at Dubai Creek, many of you enjoying multiple rounds a week which is fantastic!

ON COURSE ETIQUETTE DRIVE Similar to our sister clubs, Emirates Golf Club & Jumeirah Golf Estates, we too will be introducing an on course etiquette drive to remind our members to take appropriate care of their golf course Moving forward our on course marshal team will be informing myself of any etiquette breaches, after which a formal written warning will be sent to any member at fault. Thank you for your support in advance on the above as we continue to strive to provide the best possible playing conditions for members and guests.
