9-HOLE GOLF PROGRAMMES

SInce 1998, Tauranga Golf Club has successfully run a Womens 9-Hole Golf Programme for beginners. The aim of the programme is to promote membership and participation by teaching basic golfing schools through group coaching clinics run by Resident Professionals. On completion of the coaching phase, players then progressively graduate to 9-Hole Competition under the supervision of experienced women golfers. Originally intended as a feeder programme for 18-Hole golf, the 9-Hole Programme has proven to be an attractive option for players who enjoy the game but have not got the time for a full round of golf. We now have over 150 9-Hole Women golfers, and in mid-2004 commenced a mens Golf Development Programme along similar lines to the Womens programme.

We are now able to offer 9-Hole handicaps for both men and women.

DRESS CODE & BEHAVIOUR

Tauranga golf Club welcomes visitors and new members. We expect a high standard of dress and behaviour both on the Course and in the Clubhouse, and Club Members are responsible for the behaviour and dress standards of their guests. The Player Committees are responsible for the dress standards and behaviour of players during organised competition and may set their own standards. Bare feet, work boots, singlets, rugby or beach style shorts and dirty or unkempt clothing are not acceptable dress either on the course or in the Clubhouse. Any footwear worn on the course is not permitted in the Club Lounge/Dining Room area. Failure to comply with acceptable standards of behaviour or dress may result in your being asked to leave the Course or the Clubhouse. Members and officials are encouraged to remind others that our dress standards and behaviour standards must be complied with.
