Etiquette & Marshalling Policy
At Barnham Broom our Marshals have total authority over golf play. To avoid any confusion and to ensure that our policies are enforced in a consistent manner, the methods used to identify groups that are behind an acceptable pace of play are made as simple as possible.
If you have fallen back, relative to the group ahead of you, you are behind! i.e. If you tee off immediately behind the group in front, you are expected to stay immediately behind that group at all times for the duration of your round.
The pace of play is determined by your position relative to the group ahead, not the group behind. If the group behind you has fallen back, it means the Marshal will be trying to get them back into proper position. To move them into position, the group ahead of them (your group) must first be positioned properly.
If your group is still not capable of catching the group ahead, you may be asked to pick up your ball and move ahead into position. We want all our customers to enjoy a relaxing time on our courses without feeling they are being pressured, but sometimes these actions must be taken to ensure unacceptable delays do not occur on the course. Failure to follow the Marshals’ instructions could result in removal from the course.
The golf staff at Barnham Broom will do everything within their power to minimise the number of slow rounds on the golf course. There are, however, on a few occasions, circumstances beyond our control that prevent this from happening. To marshal a large group of golfers during long and busy days requires cooperation from all of the players. If this is not forthcoming, your round may take longer through no fault of your own. For this reason, we can only guarantee our best effort to maintain pace of play and, without help from all players, cannot guarantee a specific pace of play.
Mobile telephones may not be used on the courses except for 999 emergency calls only. Please ensure your telephone is switched off at all times. We hope you enjoy your game and we look forward to serving you both on the golf course and in the hotel.
Dress Code
On the Course & in the Brasserie Restaurant To gain access to our golf courses we respectfully request that visiting golfers must adhere to the Barnham Broom Golf Club dress code:
Shirts to have collars and sleeves.
No T-shirts (exception allowed for tailored mocks designed for golf). No blue denim trousers, no football/rugby shirts, no sports shorts or tracksuits.
No trainers, only golf shoes to be worn on the golf course.
Socks must be worn, inner socks and ankle socks allowed.
We request that shirts are tucked into trousers/shorts at all times. Baseball caps or hats must not be worn the wrong way round. Smart shirt and trousers to be worn when in the restaurant.
Staff are authorised to approach members and visitors if the dress regulations are not being adhered to.

If the group behind you has fallen back, it means the Marshal will be trying to get them back into proper position. To move them into position, the group ahead of them (your group) must first be positioned properly.
If your group is still not capable of catching the group ahead, you may be asked to pick up your ball and move ahead into position. We want all our customers to enjoy a relaxing time on our courses without feeling they are being pressured, but sometimes these actions must be taken to ensure unacceptable delays do not occur on the course. Failure to follow the Marshals’ instructions could result in removal from the course.
The golf staff at Barnham Broom will do everything within their power to minimise the number of slow rounds on the golf course. There are, however, on a few occasions, circumstances beyond our control that prevent this from happening. To marshal a large group of golfers during long and busy days requires cooperation from all of the players. If this is not forthcoming, your round may take longer through no fault of your own. For this reason, we can only guarantee our best effort to maintain pace of play and, without help from all players, cannot guarantee a specific pace of play.
Mobile telephones may not be used on the courses except for 999 emergency calls only. Please ensure your telephone is switched off at all times. We hope you enjoy your game and we look forward to serving you both on the golf course and in the hotel.
