Horsham Downs Golf Club

My partner and I drove into the carpark to be greeted by a senior male as we exited our car. I was wearing a polo (standard golf attire) and my partner a lululemon golf skirt and singlet. The man pointed out a local rule that singlets are prohibited at this golf course. We understand and respect this rule for males as everyone wants a tidy and respectable golf course and male golf singlets are not a common trend. But... as for females we believe this rule should not apply. We were both dressed tidily and we both have played golf for years. We should not be asked to either buy a new female polo (from the pro shop) or leave the golf course entirely. If golf NZ aims to expand the game of golf amongst youth, rules like this are what push youth away from these older-demographic, traditional courses. Senior golf club members treatment of the younger demographic is a very common issue and something I have came across too many times. I understand this rule for males, but for younger women golf is becoming more popular and singlets dominate young female golf attire. In the future this may give a sexist outlook on the course. After all, we are in 2023 not 1923.

Fabulous courseReally friendly peopleHope to play there again

Fun course$30 for a cart for 9 holes .A bit steep

Absolutely wonderful course

Just a really friendly and welcoming club!!! From the bar service, greeting and course conditions, they are doing a great all round job!!

Played 28th July. what a great course,a good challenge with some very interesting holes. Love the layout and the way it makes you think. Greens are excellent with fairways to match. Great course to unwind on.

Great little course. Well priced. Only 9 holes but good quality. Short course and holes makes for a good quick round. Small clubhouse.

This place saved my life. Was my turning point after my life blowing up in 2021 from years of personal neglect. 2022, from January 7th, playing day in, day out for six months of my life, and regularly after August; this will always be a very special place for me.Greens are amazing. The members are too. I couldn't be more thankful for this place, or the game of golf.

Great little course, deceptively tough but enjoyable. Staff are awesome and beers are cold
