VISITOR INFORMATION
Subject to any restrictions, we welcome visitors and golf societies to play at Surbiton Golf Club. Our green fees offer excellent value for money. Subject to prior booking and availability on the day, visitors can play on weekdays and weekends throughout the year (competition days excluded). Discounts are offered to Surrey County Card holders.
HANDICAP RESTRICTIONS
Although handicap certificates are not mandatory, we do prefer golfers to be of a sufficient standard to enjoy their round of golf and not inconvenience other players when on the course.
SPEED OF PLAY
To improve the general pace of play, Surbiton adopts the ‘Ready Golf' format for both stroke play competitions and general social golf. You will be required to keep up with the group in front, or if holding up groups behind, offer to let them through.
CATERING
Visitors are welcome to take advantage of the Clubhouse and its facilities. A wide range of snacks, sandwiches and cooked meals are available as well as at the Halfway Hut by the 9th tee.
RECEPTION ARRANGEMENTS
Upon arrival at the Club, visitors are requested to report to the Professional Shop to sign in, make payment and check their tee off time.
MOBILE PHONES AND TABLETS
We provide free WiFi so that smartphones, laptops, iPads, tablets, etc. may be used around the clubhouse. Please switch all devices to silent/vibrate at all times on the course and within the clubhouse, so that they do not cause distraction or upset fellow members, guests and visitors. Telephone calls may be made in the foyer or the car park. The making or accepting of calls on the patio is not permitted. Calls on the course should be limited to emergencies only.
SMOKING AND VAPING
Smoking and vaping are only permitted in the designated areas and NOT in the clubhouse, 19th Spikes Bar or lounge. This is only allowed in the clearly defined areas and tables on the patio. There are other clearly marked areas around the clubhouse where this is permitted.
ON THE COURSE
Golfers are asked to wear smart, appropriate golfing attire, such as is available in a PGA professional shop.
IN AND AROUND THE CLUBHOUSE
Smart casual attire is encouraged in and around the clubhouse and on the patio.
DRESS CODE
COURSE CONDUCT
Repair all pitch marks and divots. Level sand in bunkers. Trolleys not be taken on the tees, greens or their direct surrounds. Bag or trolley to be left near the exit to the green. Mark the score card on the next tee, not on the green just played. If first to tee off, play your tee shot and then mark the card.
-
Competition matches have priority
-
‘Ready Golf’ is always encouraged
-
Provisional balls should be played if in any doubt that the first
ball may be lost. Announce the brand name and number of the provisional ball to the others in your group. (See Rule 10-3 & Rule 27). Look and play your own ball, before helping others. -
Maximum of three minutes to search for a ball, after which it should be declared lost and the provisional ball is in play. Keep up with the game in front. Call next group through if you have lost a hole. Encourage a good pace when walking between shots.
The Officers and authorised employees of the club reserve the right to refuse admission to the course and/or patio and clubhouse if, in their opinion, any individual acts or dresses in a manner which could cause offence or embarrassment to other members, their guests, or visitors.
RESPECT YOUR FELLOW GOLFERS
