Dress Code

Proper golf attire must be worn at all times during play.  Tank tops, jeans (denim or not), and tee shirts are not considered appropriate golf attire.  Professionals are expected to maintain an image that will reflect well on them and the Association.  If it is felt that the attire of a professional or an amateur competing in section events does not project the proper image, the Committee is empowered to take any necessary action.  Women professionals may wear shorts or the like, but they must be acceptable golf attire.  Male professionals are allowed to wear shorts year-round per the following guidelines;

  • Shorts must be Bermuda length and not be made of denim or the like 

  • Shorts shall not be worn if the sponsor is opposed to the policy

  • Shorts shall not be worn if the host site is opposed to the policy
