It is important that all guests make an effort to adhere to Oatlands Golf Club dress regulations.  The more important of these being:
a collared shirt, dress shoes for inside the Clubhouse after golf, no jean type clothing on the course or in the Clubhouse.  If guests have no golf shoes, shoes can be hired from the Pro Shop or for Corporate Groups flat soled sneakers are permissabel.  While playing, shoes must be suitable for wear on the course, taking account of both appearance and damage to the course, particularly the greens.

If any guest's attire does not meet the above minimum standards, they will be politely asked to purchase suitable clothing from the Pro Shop.
