Golfers must dress consistently with the tradition of the game. Men shall have a tucked-in collared or no space mock neck shirt. Appropriate length Bermuda shorts are permitted. Women shall have either collared or mock neck sleeved shirts. Women may replace slacks or Bermuda shorts with “skorts” or capris. Metal spikes are prohibited. Hats must be worn with the bill forward and removed in the clubhouse.
The following list of clothing is unacceptable on club grounds: tee shirts (novelty or otherwise), denim/jeans, undershirts, athletic sweat-suits/warm-ups, cutoffs, cargo shorts, running shorts, short shorts, swimming attire, halter tops, fishnet tops, tank tops, bare midriffs. Jeans or denim may be worn in the Tap Room (bar) and lounge areas, but not on the golf course.
Pace of Play
Play well, play fair, play fast.
Slow play is one of the biggest problems facing the game of golf and can ruin the experience at this or any club. At Watchung Valley, we pride ourselves on playing quickly. No round of golf should ever take more than four (4) hours and our members routinely play in three (3) hours or less.
The golf professional and caddie master monitor play and have the authority to adjust a group's position on the course at their discretion for slow play. Without exception, slower groups must let faster groups play through. Faster groups have an obligation to protect the field and request to play through.
