Tips for Playing Golf in a Hot Climate Playing in hot weather creates special stresses to the body that you must watch for like dehydration and fatigue and in some more severe cases, heat exhaustion. So to perform at your best in the heat and avoid health risks while playing sports, you need to take a few necessary precautions like the following tips and pointers: Reserve a Tee-time early in the morning Get plenty of sleep the night before playing 18 holes Apply sun block particularly on the ears, nape of neck, nose and other exposed areas Wear a cap or hat and sunglasses to help with visibility and sun glare Wear light colored clothes made of a breathable fabric Bring a small towel to dry off sweat. Moisten a handkerchief is also a good way to cool down the face, hands and arms Bring 2 or 3 golf gloves and change every 3 or 4 holes Hit less balls when warming up Drink plenty of water before and during the game Avoid alcohol as it dehydrates the body Avoid coffee (even iced) since the caffeine acts as a diuretic Take short rests during the game without delaying other groups Eat fruits instead of heavy meals on the course Stay in the shade as much as possible when not hitting and carry an umbrella
