Visitors from New Zealand affiliated golf clubs must produce the appropriate membership card or a letter of introduction from the player's home club to obtain the discounted green fees.

All green fees must be paid at the Pro Shop before play.

As golf is a game where normally there is no referee or umpire, members are placed on their honour to "play the game", as it not only concerns an opponent, but in competition, it concerns the whole field. Therefore players must honour and observe the Rules of Golf & the Rules of the Club at all times. All players are to carry the Rules of Golf booklet.

Common sense and courtesy are all important. Limit your practice swings, don't dawdle between shots and don't take unnecessary time on the greens. If you lose your place in the field let others through. A maximum of four (4) players per group on match days, unless directed by official of the day.

In the case of weather conditions affecting the play of any club event, the Committee will endeavour to have this announced at the earliest stage over the Newstalk ZB cancellation service. The Club Professional will be advised and members when in doubt should enquire there. The Course Superintendent is not to be phoned.

In the interests of safety and so as not to disrupt club activities all children under the age of 13 years must be under strict supervision by parent or caregiver at all times both on and off the course. The Waitikiri Golf Club does not accept liability for damage to the property of any club member or visitor, or to the person of said people.

Any complaints on whatever matter shall be made in writing in the first instance to the General Manager. In particular, no member shall direct any criticism to any member, employee of the club, or to any contractor. If the General Manager is unable to deal with the matter he will submit a report to the Board of Management whose decision shall be final.

They look after the course for you - look after them and give all green staff the right of way at all times.
