Dress Code: The HSJGA is a guest of each facility. Proper attire is required at all times at all HSJGA tournaments, practice rounds, events and/or functions. The dress code prohibits mock turtleneck shirts, denim (including colored: blue, black, white, etc.), surfer, swim, gym or short shorts (shorts length must be beyond fingertips when arms are hanging to the side), tank tops, halter-tops, and T-shirts. All hats must be worn properly (brim forward for caps, etc.) and hair must be well groomed.

 

Collared (no mock turtleneck) shirts for all (with sleeves for boys/ sleeveless for girls is allowed) must be worn and tucked in (boys only) with belts worn if pants or shorts have belt loops. Girl’s shirts with straight hems designed to be worn out are allowed. Girls are also allowed to wear skirts/skorts. HSJGA prohibits earrings on boys. Other than earrings on girls, no other visible body piercing is allowed (nose rings, etc.). Parents, relatives, friends and members not involved in the event and/or spectators are asked to abide by the HSJGA dress code and may be asked to leave the premises if they are in violation of the policy.

 

The dress code will be observed before, during and after the round at the host club and during any HSJGA off-site function.

 

Any player in violation of the dress code policy at any time will be penalized 50 points for their second violation (for both Player of the Year and the HSJGA teams) and 100 points for all subsequent violations.

 

Players will not be allowed to tee off until they are in compliance with the HSJGA dress code. Players are subject to this penalty until they leave the premises of the golf course or any off-site function.

 

Note: the HSJGA recognizes that shirts can be properly tucked in and can become “un-tucked” during the normal course of play. In these instances, juniors will be asked to tuck their shirts back in. However, if there is a willful violation of this aspect of the dress code (such as deliberately “un-tucking” their shirt or disregarding the request to tuck it back in), a junior is subject to disqualification and a deduction of 50/100 points at the sole discretion of the Tournament Director or Tournament Committee.

 

It is expected that all juniors and all those in attendance adhere to the HSJGA Dress Code during all practice rounds for HSJGA tournaments, HSJGA clinics and all off-site functions. All infractions are subject to resulting consequences.
