THE DIAMOND IN THE DUNES

Our traditional classic links course with its undulating fairways and sand dunes is a testing 6,649 yards. Situated on the Wirral Peninsula overlooking Liverpool Bay and the Irish Sea, there are far reaching views of the Welsh Mountains. Originally designed by Tom Morris Snr, it has later been altered by other notable golfing figures Alec Herd, Harold Hilton and James Braid.

Significant investment continues to be made in maintaining and developing the England Top 100 course with 4 new tees opened in 2021 together with an extensive program of bunker re-engineering, and dune reinstatement, enhancing the golfing experience further.

DRESS CODE

Wallasey Golf Club aims to operate a contemporary and forward thinking dress policy, commensurate with a modern day golf club. It is in all our interests to maintain reasonable standards of casual, but smart, dress in keeping with golfing traditions.

The following information is therefore given as guidance to members, guests and visitors of Wallasey Golf Club, both for wear on the course and in the clubhouse. Conventional golf wear is required. In deciding what is acceptable, if clothing is specifically designed for golf or is sold in the professional’s shop, then it is deemed to be acceptable.

The following are not seen as acceptable: denim jeans, cargo style trousers/shorts, beach wear, training shoes, sandals (for gentlemen), flip-flops and round neck T-shirts. Men’s shirts must have collars and sleeves and be worn inside trousers or shorts.

Lady’s golf shirts that have been designed/tailored to wear outside trousers/shorts/skirts etc. may be worn. All other shirts must be tucked in.

Shorts should be tailored, knee length and may be worn with either short white ankle sports socks (including trainer liner socks) or knee length socks. (It should be noted that shorts are not permitted in the Snooker Room).

Clean ‘Soft Spiked’ or ‘Dimpled’ Golf shoes are allowed throughout the Club House, with the exception of the snooker room & committee room. Metal spikes are only allowed in the Players’ entrance and locker rooms. ‘Loafer’ styled shoes may be worn without socks in the Club House.

Clothing that may have endured the rigours of golf on the course, for example wet or muddy garments, must be changed before entering any lounge, bar or dining areas. Coats and other outdoor clothing should be left in the changing rooms. Hats and caps should be removed in the clubhouse.
