Visitors & Dress Code

Visitors

We would be delighted for you to come and experience the thrill offered by playing on our manicured fairways and true-running greens as you walk round our picturesque parkland layout at Maidenhead that has been enjoyed by thousands since it first opened in 1896. Visitors are welcome to play our historic Members’ course at times when it is not being used by our Members.

Even better value is offered with the purchase of a Day Ticket allowing unlimited golf subject to course availability and with special twilight rates often available to those able to play at less busy times later in the day. It is preferred that Visitors possess a current handicap and can produce a handicap certificate upon registration at the Professional’s Shop. If a handicap certificate cannot be presented, the Club reserve the right to ask any player or players to leave the course if their lack of ability is likely to be to the detriment of others on the course or they do not adhere to the etiquette as detailed in the Rules of Golf or to the club’s rules and dress code. To check on tee-time availability and to book your round, call 01628 624067.

On Course Dress Code The issue of a dress code is a sensitive subject at all golf clubs. We would like our Members, guests & visitors to enjoy their experience and respectfully request that golfers wear recognised golf attire. A clean and smart appearance is expected on the course at all times.

To avoid unnecessary embarrassment, Maidenhead Golf Club request all Members, guests and visitors to consider their attire against the spirit of the dress code. If you have any doubt in respect of an item of clothing or footwear adhering to the dress code, then please refrain from wearing it.

Clubhouse Dress Code Members, guests and visitors are required to wear smart casual clothing. Smart jeans and trainers are allowed in all areas of the clubhouse. The following are not acceptable: • Flip flops • T-shirts • Caps or golf hats • Wet, muddy or sweaty clothing including golf waterproofs, replica sports kit (e.g. Rugby or football shirts)

Soft spiked golf shoes are permitted in the casual ‘Players’ bar area but are not permitted in the lounge area or restaurant.

Exception: • Ladies may use the main entrance to access the locker room. • If wearing shorts (tailored and knee length) - socks are required both on the patio and in the clubhouse.

Socks are not required with deck shoes. Combat, cargo or multi pocket trousers/ shorts are not acceptable. Shirts of all kind must be tucked into trousers.

After 7pm the only section of the clubhouse where shorts are permitted is in the casual ‘Players’ bar area. For Friday Night Suppers and Sunday Carvery Lunches a jacket is preferred but this is not a requirement. For dress guidelines for other social functions see publicity notices. In exceptional circumstances, certain elements of the dress code may be relaxed but only with the permission of President, Club Chairman, Club Captain or, in their absence, a Club Official.
