Club Rules
Course and Club Regulations and Etiquette

Welcome to Manchester Golf Club.

We make no apology for publication of this outline of the rules and etiquette expected at Manchester Golf Club, as we feel it is our duty to ensure that the standards of dress and behaviour in the clubhouse and on the course are kept as high as possible.

Making yourself aware of the rules will avoid any embarrassment to yourselves or to official and members of the club.

For us, the ownership and maintenance of this historic course and clubhouse is a source of great pride and pleasure. Naturally we wish every golfer who plays here to enjoy our course and facilities to the full.

We believe that this statement of rules, asking as it does for respect for the traditions and rules, as well as for due consideration for other players, is appropriate and will be appreciated by all who enjoy the finest the game has to offer.
