  Online Tee Booking

• Start Times

  We operate starting tee times throughout the year. It is advisable to check in around 30 minutes before your tee time because it may not always be possible to fit you in later should you miss it.

• Buggies

  The Club rents buggies to visitors at £30 per round and members £20 per round. It is essential to pre-book a buggy should you require one as supply is limited.

• Public Footpaths

  There are a number of public footpaths that run through Garforth Golf Club. Walkers on the footpath have priority at all times. It is the golfers’ responsibility to make sure it is safe to play their shot.

• Dress Regulations

  Like most golf clubs, we operate a standard dress code that we politely remind visitors of, and ask that you follow the points below, which are representative of acceptable dress.

  Members should ensure that they and their guests are aware of the dress code.

  • No denim or casual sportswear
  • Tailored knee length shorts with predominantly white socks are allowed
  • Shirts with a collar or rolled neck must be tucked into trousers at all times
  • Ladies shirts or blouses that have been custom made to hip length for wearing outside skirts or trousers are permissible
  • Training type shoes or beachwear are not permissible on the course or anywhere in the Clubhouse
  • Spikeless, dimple-soled golf shoes are not permissible in the Lounge, 19th bar or balcony
  • Peaked caps must be worn with the peak at the front, and must not be worn in the clubhouse

  Certain variations on these general dress code rules apply in the following situations:

  • In the Clubhouse after 7:00pm for the Annual General Meeting, Annual Prize Presentation and Captain’s Day – gentlemen must wear jacket, collar and tie
  • Any group or party hiring the Dining Room may designate their own dress code. In some circumstances, this may be subject to Board approval
• Course Etiquette

  The R&A Rules of Golf sets out the etiquette and standards expected by all players.

  These can be viewed in full at http://www.randa.org/RulesEquipment/Rules/Rules-Explorer

  In addition to this, the Club have a number of traditions which we request that all members and visitors adhere to.

  • Allow the Club Captain and President priority on the first tee
  • When 2 tee starts are in operation, all players (those commencing their round and continuing after playing their first nine holes) must alternate on the 1st and 10th tee
  • A single player is asked not to play two balls, as this is considered practicing on the course and is prohibited
  • Players should not push/pull trolleys between the greens and rear of greenside bunkers at any time
  • In winter, the greens and surrounds are protected by ropes, metal wires or a painted white line. Please ensure you do not take your trolley beyond these areas
  • When leaving the 18th green, exit to the left onto the perimeter path leading to the first tee: please do not cross in front of or over the 10th tee
  • Please give priority to those players competing in major competitions
  • Within the Clubhouse, mobile phones should be placed on silent mode. If answered, calls should be taken in a quiet area such as the staircase landing or car park
  • Mobile phones should only be used on the course in the case of an emergency
