General Etiquette

At Rotherham we pride ourselves on our relaxed atmosphere. However, we kindly request that all visitors adhere to our club rules and observe standard golfing etiquette to ensure a seamless experience during their visit.

While handicap certificates are not obligatory, we do encourage golfers to possess the skills necessary to fully enjoy their round and to avoid disrupting other players on the course.

Please maintain a suitable pace of play, keeping up with the group ahead to prevent delays.

During your time on the course, please silence or switch off your mobile phone. However, you may use them for GPS purposes.
