The Bay Club Company and its subsidiaries and affiliated entities (collectively, “TBCC,” the “Bay Club” or the “Company”) have adopted guidelines, procedures, rules and regulations (“guidelines”) designed to provide for the safe, enjoyable and healthy use of our clubs and premises and events by you, our members and guests.
These guidelines apply to your conduct on the Bay Club’s premises, which includes your access to our clubs, sports amenities (including golf, tennis, squash, racquetball and basketball), all outdoor areas, including parking lots, sidewalks, and outdoor pools, and indoor and outdoor children’s play areas (collectively, “premises”) or any use of the Bay Club’s online, mobile, or interactive offerings or websites. They also apply to your conduct during its programs, training, events or other Bay Club-sponsored activities off the premises (“events”).
These guidelines supplement those posted or otherwise provided in our clubs, on our web or mobile sites, or at our events. We may adopt guidelines applicable to a single club. In some instances, governmental laws may establish different requirements applicable to certain clubs that may not be outlined here. To the extent of a conflict with other guidelines, the more restrictive guideline applies.
If you violate any of these guidelines, your membership or club access may be suspended or terminated. Members are responsible for their actions and the actions of their family and guests when at the Club. Should damage arise—whether property or personal injury—you are liable for all resultant costs. Our decision on all questions regarding construction or interpretation of these guidelines is final. Please note that not all rules may apply at all clubs if a specific department is not onsite.
We may change these guidelines at any time without notice at our sole discretion. You may find the most current version of these guidelines at www.bayclubs.com/membershipguidelines. As a member or guest of the Bay Club, you are responsible to review and comply with these guidelines at all times. For questions, please contact a Membership Director or a General Manager.
Bay Club Membership Benefits and Lifestyle Points are awarded at the discretion of The Bay Club Company (TBCC). Certain memberships have special membership arrangements, which entitle participating members to use and enjoy the facilities of reciprocal clubs in accordance with those clubs’ Rules and Regulations. The member agrees to abide by such Rules and Regulations, as they exist or may change from time to time. Further, the Club may change the reciprocal clubs from time to time. The Member expressly agrees that all use of the club facilities, exercise equipment, exercise machines, courts and any transportation provided by the Club is undertaken by the member or member’s guest at his/her sole risk.
The Bay Club Company offers the following types of membership tiers and categories that are subject to change from time to time in the sole discretion of Bay Clubs.

(REVISED JUNE 2023)
A membership change occurs when there is any change in membership tier, category, or primary account holder. A membership change fee may apply depending on the type of membership tier or category change. All changes will be based on the current membership offerings and past membership types and categories may not be available. For transferable memberships, moving between Club West membership categories will restart the 24-month vesting period.
There is no membership change fee to upgrade your membership to a higher tier within your current membership category (e.g. Executive Club Individual to Executive Club Couple). If you are upgrading to a higher membership category or to a transferable membership, you will be charged the difference in the initiation fee between the membership categories.
All upgrade requests must be submitted through bayclubconnect.com and are not confirmed until a digital agreement is completed and returned for your record via email.
To downgrade your membership within the same tier or to a new category, one calendar month’s notice is required. For instance, if your request is submitted and confirmed in January, the month of February is counted as your month’s notice and your change would go into effect in March. There are no additional restrictions to when you may downgrade your membership but please note, if you choose to downgrade your membership and would like to upgrade to a higher membership category at a later date, you will be charged the difference of the rack rate initiation fees between your membership category and the new category.
All downgrade requests must be submitted through bayclubconnect.com and are not confirmed until a digital agreement is completed and returned for your record via email.
The total number of Active participants may not exceed 6 members at any given time. Requests to remove a participant from the account will go into effect the 1st of the following month, if the request is received in Bay Club Connect by the 25th of the current month. Any request to add a participant to the account, up to the max limit of 6 members, will incur the respective prorated monthly dues associated with the Member’s Shared Membership type. In addition, any request to add a participant to the account will incur an add-on processing fee of $25. Membership conversions from an existing Individual, Couple, or Family membership to a Shared Membership will occur the first of the following calendar month. By way of example, if a membership change request is made on November 5, the membership will convert to Shared Membership as of January 1.
Members may change a primary member on a Shared Membership by making the request in Bay Club Connect. Requests to change a participant on the account to the primary will go into effect with a calendar months’ notice,. The new primary member must sign the required documentation to assume financial responsibility for the Shared Membership. All financial responsibility remains with the current primary member until a change request goes into effect. Primary requests are not confirmed until a digital agreement is completed and returned to the new primary member via email. A primary change fee is applied to all primary membership change requests and is determined by the category of the Shared Membership. The primary change fee applied to a Shared Membership is $500 for the Club West Gold category and $100 for the Executive Club category or below. (updated 7.21.23)
To resign your membership, one calendar month’s notice is required. For instance, if your request is submitted and confirmed in January, the month of February is counted as your month’s notice and your membership would be terminated effective in March. All cancellation requests must be submitted through bayclubconnect.com and are not confirmed until a digital agreement is completed and returned for your record via email.
Prior to your final day of access, you are required to bring your account balance to zero and return any club property (i.e., locker keys).
The Club reserves the right to suspend or terminate membership if the member(s) fail to comply with any rules and regulations adopted by the Club—or for any conduct the Club determines to be improper, or in any way not in the best interest of the Club.
Any Transferable Fee member may terminate at will his, her, or its membership at The Bay Club by delivering to the home club’s office a written resignation and application for Transfer of Membership. Transferable memberships may not be transferred except as follows:
1. Memberships must be in place for a minimum of 24 months.
2. Memberships may be gifted to lineal descendants by lifetime or testamentary gifts, or by virtue of the laws of succession.
3. Once a written resignation and application for transfer of membership has been received, memberships may be resold on a best-efforts basis by The Bay Club. Memberships offered for resale shall be on a first-applied, first-sale basis. A fee of 30% of the gross proceeds of the sale shall be retained by The Bay Club. Memberships may not be sold to third-party purchasers directly by members. All membership transfers will be sold and processed by The Bay Club.
Example 1: A member joins as a Club West member under the Transferable Fee options for $15,000. After paying monthly dues for a minimum of 24 months, the member decides to terminate his or her membership and the prevailing intial Transferable Fee for a Club West membership is currently selling for $25,000. The member will be entitled to $17,500 ($25,000 * 70% = $17,500) upon completing the appropriate paperwork and the successful transfer of the membership.
Example 2: A member joins as a Country Club member under the Transferable Fee option for $15,000. After paying monthly dues for a minimum of 24 months, the member decides to terminate his or her membership and the prevailing Transferable Fee for a Country Club membership is currently selling for $10,000. The member will be entitled to $7,000 ($10,000 * 70% = $7,000) upon completing the appropriate paperwork and the successful transfer of the membership. The Bay Club may terminate this Agreement and end Member’s Use Privileges if Member and/or his/her Guests, Extended Family Members, Significant Other, and/or Immediate Family Members violate the Membership Guidelines and Terms and Conditions related to operation of The Bay Club’s Club Facilities or other locations. In such case, monthly dues shall be prorated as of the termination date. The Transfer Fee shall not be returned to the Member. Notwithstanding such termination, Member shall remain liable for any amounts owed to The Bay Club and this obligation shall survive the termination.
Members may apply for LOA if they would like to place their membership on hold for a minimum of one month and a maximum of six months. LOA requests require one calendar month’s notice. For instance, if your request is submitted and confirmed in January, the month of February is counted as your month’s notice and your LOA would go into effect in March. There is no limit to the number of times a member is permitted to go on LOA. However, in order to request an additional LOA, you must return to active membership status for a minimum of one (1) month. In addition, LOA cannot be applied retroactively.
For the LOA to be approved, the membership account must be current. Additionally, while on LOA members are not permitted to use the Club under any circumstances and if they do so, they will be charged the full monthly dues rate.
All LOA requests must be submitted through bayclubconnect.com and are not confirmed until a digital agreement is completed and returned for your record via email.
The dues rate for all Single-Site, Dual-Site, Campus, and Executive Club memberships on LOA are $50 per month. The monthly rate for Club West Collection Memberships is 50% of your current monthly membership dues. Please note that if a member uses a club while on LOA or decides to end his or her LOA mid-month, the full dues rate for that month will be charged.
The month(s) your membership is on LOA will not be counted toward the number of months listed on your membership agreement, and you will be expected to pay the LOA rate during the months you’re absent in full at the time your request is confirmed If you chose to extend your LOA, you will be charged upfront for the additional month(s). We will not provide a refund or credit for LOA ended early.
The month(s) your membership is on LOA will not be counted toward your 24-month minimum for eligibility (i.e., your first 24 months of membership).
Leave of Absence (LOA) is not available with the Shared membership. Add-on members may be removed for the next month’s billing cycle by the 25th of the prior month. If a Primary member wishes to be removed, one calendar months’ notice is required, in writing, to Bay Club Connect, and will take effect one calendar month after the first of the following month. In addition, a new Primary member must be identified to complete a new membership and financial agreement with one calendar months’ notice.
In the event of the divorce or separation of spouses having membership privileges under either a Family membership or a Couple membership, the membership, including all of its rights and benefits, will vest solely in the spouse awarded the membership by an agreement of separation or a decree of divorce. Until the award of the membership and written notice thereof is provided to the Club, both spouses will be jointly and severally liable for all dues and charges and both may continue to enjoy membership privileges so long as such amounts are timely paid. The Club reserves the right to not transfer the membership to either spouse if the Club, in its discretion, is unable to determine the person who is lawfully entitled to receive the membership. When ownership of the membership has been determined, written notice thereof and the relevant documentation shall be promptly delivered to the Club. The disposition of the membership must be determined within one year after a separation or, in the case of a divorce, within such one-year period, the title to the membership must be addressed. In the decree of divorce, the Club has the right to suspend membership privileges until ownership of the membership has been determined and the Club has received written notice thereof and the appropriate documentation. The Club shall also have the right in either such case to deem the membership resigned in its discretion. Following a separation or divorce and award of the membership as contemplated hereby, the spouse awarded the membership shall have the right to determine which Immediate Family Members will be permitted to use the Club Facilities under the membership.
The Club will not become involved in any domestic or other dispute concerning ownership or issuance of a membership and does not have any liability or responsibility for resolution of such disputes. If the Club is uncertain as to who should receive the refund, if any, associated with a refundable membership, the Club in its discretion may file an interpleader action or similar type action and thereby deposit the refund amount into the registry of a court of competent jurisdiction for the court to determine who is entitled to the refund without recourse to the Club. The Club shall be entitled to a reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs from the Member in question for filing such interpleader action. The Club reserves the right to petition the divorce court to determine who is entitled to the refund, if any, once the refund becomes payable.
Upon arriving at the Club, all members must check in at the Front Desk for each visit. Please use the Bay Club Connect mobile app to check-in at all locations.

If you are bringing a guest to the Club, please be sure to check in at the Hospitality Desk, pay the prevailing Guest Fee ($30 for those 13+ and $15 for those 12 and under), and have your guest complete a registration and waiver form. It is likewise imperative that members understand that they are responsible for all conduct, actions, and behavior of their guests while on Bay Club property. Guests may utilize the facilities or play a sport only when accompanied by a member.

Please note that members may be charged up to $75 to replace the lock if they misplace their key. Private lockers, including executive lockers, are available for a monthly fee on a limited basis at select clubs. Members and guests agree not to store valuable items in any lockers.

Members may not apply credit to their membership account or use it for any purpose other than what was intended.
The Bay Club expects all members (and guests) to act in an acceptable, responsible, and professional manner while at a Bay Club property. Defining this behavior to address every situation is difficult, and this policy does not intend to do so. Unacceptable behavior, and/or any deliberate action that is extreme in nature and is obviously detrimental to The Bay Club’s efforts to fulfill its mission or purpose, will not be permitted in the Club, and can lead to suspension or termination of Club membership. To avoid any possible confusion, however, some of the more obvious unacceptable behaviors are noted below:
– Negligence or any careless action that endangers the life or safety of another person.
– Possession, use, distribution, sale, transfer, or being under the influence of controlled or mind altering substances.
– Unauthorized possession of dangerous or illegal firearms, weapons, or explosives.
– Engaging in criminal conduct or acts of violence or making threats of violence toward anyone on TBCC premises; fighting or provoking a fight on TBCC premises; or negligent damage of property.
– Threatening, intimidating, or coercing associates, members, guests, or any other persons associated with TBCC.
– Abusive or indecent (including, but not limited to, sexual) conduct toward members, associates, and guests.
– Any act of harassment, sexual, racial or otherwise; telling sexist or racist jokes; making racial or ethnic slurs or otherwise engaging in discriminatory conduct, actions or behavior.
– Any illegal activity, crime, or grossly negligent act committed on TBCC property. “Grossly negligent” is defined as that which falls outside the actions of a prudent person in the same or similar situation. Criminal activities will normally be referred to authorities for legal action.
TBCC is committed to providing a Club membership environment free of harassment and/or discrimination. TBCC’s policy prohibits discrimination and harassment of any kind, including (without limitation) based on race (and all traits historically associated with race, including, but not limited to, hair texture and protective hairstyles), color, religion, creed (including religious dress and grooming practices) sex (including pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions, and breastfeeding and other related medical conditions), sexual orientation and identity, gender, gender identity, gender expression or transitioning, actual or perceived accent or ability to speak English, age (40 and over), disability, marital/familial status, source of income, military or veteran status, citizenship status, political activities or affiliations, medical condition, genetic information, persons with AIDS or AIDS-related condition, persona who are victims of violent crime, domestic violence, harassment or discrimination, or any other consideration made unlawful by federal, state, or local laws. The following is a partial list:
– Verbal conduct such as threats, epithets, derogatory comments, or slurs.
– Visual conduct such as derogatory posters, photographs, cartoons, drawings, or gestures.
– Physical conduct such as assault, unwanted touching, or blocking normal movement.
– Retaliation for reporting harassment or threatening to report harassment.

It is the Company’s policy to maintain a firearms and weapons free environment and prohibit the possession of firearms and weapons regardless of any license or permit that an individual may have which would otherwise authorize the individual to carry firearms or weapons. The only exception applies to active, on-duty, law enforcement officers.
Formal personal or group instruction with regard to fitness and sports training is not permitted by any individuals other than authorized Bay Club staff.
No animals are permitted in clubs or on club grounds (including golf courses), unless they are designated service animals, except during specific animal-focused events. A service animal is defined as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability; the task(s) performed by the dog must be directly related to the person’s disability. The service dog is permitted to accompany the individual with a disability to all areas of the facility where members and guests are normally allowed to go.
Members are welcome to take photos of themselves or immediate family members while enjoying the Club. For privacy purposes, we ask members to refrain from taking photos of other members or making social media posts without their express advance permission. The Club will not be responsible for any member taking photos or making social media posts about with or about other members.
Members may confirm reservations for various club activities and programs, including booking tennis and squash courts, group exercise classes, childcare, and spa appointments. See below for specific booking details. When you are ready to book, simply use the Bay Club Connect app. An individual member may book one reservation per day per sport. Couple or Family memberships may book up to two reservations per day per sport. Shared Memberships may book one reservation per day, per club, per membership. Additional reservations may be secured the day of play based on availability. Member must be present at time of play or a cancellation fee will be incurred.
Please note that our Late Cancellation and No-Show Guidelines apply to all reservations. Please see specific sport or service below for cancellation details.
The Club reserves the right to deny the use of the Fitness Center to anyone not willing or able to properly and safely use fitness equipment. Shirts and closed-toe shoes are required at all times. As a courtesy to others, please return mats and weights to their designated areas, place trash and towels in the appropriate receptacles, and limit your cardio workout to 30 minutes when others are waiting for a machine. Additionally, we ask that you allow others to work in when using strength training equipment.
Children under the age of 12 are not allowed to use the Fitness equipment unless they are working with one of the Club’s trainers. Members ages 12–13 are allowed to use the Fitness equipment if they are under direct adult supervision and have taken our Teen Training Safety Course. Direct supervision means the parent is watching the teen at all times; the teen and adult may take turns doing sets but may not do sets concurrently. The adult must know weightlifting techniques and the operation of fitness equipment well enough to prevent injury to the teen. Members ages 14–17 are allowed to use the Fitness equipment without supervision if they have completed a Teen Training Safety Course.
Proper attire is required for anyone using the Club. Appropriate footwear and shirts are required in all public indoor and outdoor recreational areas, including closed-toe shoes in fitness areas and non-marking shoes on all hardwood exercise floors and courts. For tennis, squash, golf course, and clubhouse-specific guidelines, please see respective department.
Children under the age of 12 are not allowed to use the Fitness equipment without supervision unless certified. New students should arrive to class ten minutes early to discuss any injuries or special concerns with the instructor prior to the start of class. We ask that you follow the instructor’s routine, as classes are a group activity. Specific guidelines are posted at the entrance of each studio. Please follow these guidelines carefully for the safety and enjoyment of all members. Additionally, we ask that you keep conversation to a minimum, wipe down the equipment after class, and return it to its designated storage space. We ask that members and guests arrive on time to all classes. Entering a class late is disruptive and strongly discouraged.
These areas are designed to be tranquil environments. And as such, we ask that you keep your voice low and refrain from performing other high-impact fitness activities in and around these areas. The yoga rooms are available for private practice when classes are not in session. However, if an instructor needs the room for a private lesson, you will be required to change rooms.

General Information
Showers must be taken before entering any of our pools. Outdoor showers are available at all outdoor pool locations. Lifeguards are on duty on a seasonal basis. When all lanes are occupied, please be respectful of others by sharing lanes and limiting your swim to 30 minutes.
Pool Area
All children under the age of 14 must be directly supervised by an adult at all times (please see Children’s Guideline section). For the safety and enjoyment of all members, please follow all other rules and regulations posted and ensure that your choice of swimwear is appropriate for all members.
Swim Test Protocol
All children ages 13 and younger are required to take a test where they must swim unassisted for 1 lap in a 25-yard pool without wearing googles and tread water for 60 seconds. Once they pass, they’ll receive a wristband that they must wear in and around the pool, indicating that they are water safe. (Though we still ask that children are supervised at all times). If a child is not water safe, the parent/ guardian must be in the pool with the child, within “arm’s reach” at all times. This protocol is active Memorial Day through Labor Day.
Triple-Up Guideline
As a matter of law, a pool must be shut down up to 24 hours (depending on pool size) if a child has had an accident in the water. Therefore, while using any club pool or water feature, all non potty-trained swimmers must wear three layers: A swim diaper, reusable plastic pants (tight fitting around the legs), plus a swimsuit. Please make sure children use the restroom before they swim, and encourage them to take a restroom break at least every hour.
Children’s Pool Breaks (Adults-Only Swim)
During busy times, lifeguards may, at their discretion, call a 10-minute Children’s Pool Break to give kids a chance to rest and take some time away from the water and sun. This is also a time to re-apply sunscreen, hydrate, and use the restroom. During a Children’s Pool Break, no one under the age of 16 is permitted in any of our pools.
Lifeguards
Although parents are always responsible for supervising their children, lifeguards are staffed during our peak Summer season for the safety and service of our members. Lifeguards may enforce rules that are posted/listed or not, as situations warrant. We ask all parents and members to follow all rules, whether posted or not, to ensure a positive experience for all. Toys and swim equipment will be restricted at the discretion of the lifeguard based on safety concerns. Squirt guns are limited to what is available in The Shop; hard balls (e.g., tennis balls) and Frisbees are not allowed in and around the pools. Please contact your club for specific lifeguard hours.
Swim Team
Swim Teams are offered at several locations year-round and are open for children ages 5–18. Please note all children who participate on one of our Bay Club swim teams must be listed on a family membership . Complimentary water aerobics programs are listed on our group exercise schedule and offer a fun, cardiovascular and strength-training workout in the comfort of the water.
Court Etiquette
All members and their guest(s) are asked to follow our Court Etiquette guidelines to assure a pleasant experience for all:
– Please wait for the completion of the point before entering and allow players to finish a game; if entering players are late for their court, the game in progress should stop. In tennis, while the next group of players is waiting during final game, no-ad scoring should be used. Squash players should always knock prior to entering.
– Verbal and racquet abuse are not tolerated.
– In consideration of those on the adjacent court(s), keep noise to a reasonable level.
– If your ball rolls onto the adjacent court, do not run onto that court to retrieve your ball. Ask politely for the ball to be returned (e.g., “Court 4, the ball behind you. Thanks!”). If a ball rolls onto your court, wait for the completion of the point on the adjacent court before sending the ball back.
– Please refrain from bringing any liquids onto the squash courts.
– Always leave the tennis court presentable for the next member by removing all towels and trash.
Tennis and Squash Attire
Appropriate sports attire must be worn at all times. Swimsuits and bare feet are not allowed on the courts. Non-marking regulation tennis or squash shoes are required on all courts. Protective eyewear for squash is required for all players 18 years of age or younger and is highly recommended for all others.
Court Reservations
Each member is responsible to book his or her own court reservations and may make only one reservation at a time. Reservations must include a minimum of two names for both singles and doubles bookings (tennis only). Back-to-back reservations are not permitted and playing partners cannot reserve courts consecutively. Further, a court reservation cannot be transferred to another member.
A member may make one court reservation per day. Couple or Family memberships may make up to two reservations per day. Once the reservation time has passed, the member can make additional same-day bookings, based on court availability.
Note: Those with Club West Sapphire or Club West Diamond memberships may book up to two prime time reservations in advance per week, per membership. Additional prime time courts may be booked up to four days in advance.

Additionally, after 15 minutes, the reserved court will then be released for open reservation. Excessive no-shows may result in a 30-day suspension of court booking privileges.
Golf is a sport in which etiquette and consideration of others are of paramount importance. In that respect, the following Golf guidelines have been thoughtfully compiled and set in place to ensure an exceptional experience for all Bay Club golf courses.
General Etiquette
Proper etiquette for all golfers begins upon arrival at the Club and continues through the round and until the golfer leaves the property. The following are our general etiquette guidelines:
– All members and guests must check in with the golf shop team prior to setting out on the course.
– Each of our clubs provides locker rooms for changing in and out of golf attire and shoes. With this in mind, the changing of shoes or clothes is prohibited anywhere other than in the locker rooms.
– Golf is a game of concentration. Consequently, all those on or near the course and practice areas should have their cell phone ringers turned off. We also ask that in consideration for those relaxing in the Clubhouse, that you take and make all calls outside, in areas that do not interfere with play. Those expecting calls should set their phones to either an inaudible alarm or vibration mode.
– To ensure the proper pace of play, every golfer must have his or her own set of clubs; sharing a set is not permitted. If you are in need of a set of clubs, please speak to a golf shop associate regarding rentals.
– Music in golf carts is permitted providing it is kept at a volume to not disturb others in the group.
Golf & Country Club Attire
All members and guests must wear appropriate attire while at the Club to ensure a pleasant environment for all. Please familiarize yourself with the following guidelines and adhere to them at all times:
– Clubhouse, 77 Social Club, and Dining Room: Golf, tennis, and business casual attire with slacks and an appropriate shirt are allowed. Tasteful denim is permitted, including jeans and skirts, but must not have any rips, tears or holes. No cutoffs are permitted on property. Men’s shirts must be tucked in at all times with the exception of Tommy Bahama-style, button-down shirts (collared without shirttails) designed to be worn outside of pants.

Shorts are permitted all day in our Clubhouses and 77 Social Clubs, and until 5:00 pm in our Dining Rooms. Please note that from time to time, the Club may host specific events that may require more formal attire.
– Golf Course and Practice Facilities: We take pride in maintaining our courses to the highest standards. This pride should reflect itself in our attire when we play on our courses. All members, including juniors, must follow the dress code while on the golf course and all practice facilities. Members must inform their guests of the dress code in advance.
– All Golfers: Denim jeans, athletic shorts, non-golf fitness attire and sweat clothes are not allowed on the golf course. Only golf shoes with soft spikes or sneakers are permitted.
– Men’s and Boys’ Golf Attire: All golf shirts must have a collar or be golf specific sportswear. Golf shirts must be tucked in at all times while on property. Tommy Bahama-style, button-down shirts are permitted to be worn untucked. Traditional “Bermuda” shorts are permitted. All hats, visors, and caps must be worn with the bills to the front.

Traditional Bermuda shorts, golf skirts, culottes, and slacks are permitted, but they should not be any shorter than mid-thigh. Cutoff shorts are not permitted.
– We expect our members to ensure they and their guests adhere to the dress code so that our associates need not give any reminders. If a reminder of the dress code is needed, we expect members to please be courteous to club associates. We understand that golf fashion is ever-evolving and—while remaining in keeping with TBCC’s understanding of a proper club environment—we may change standards accordingly. Note that some additional rules may apply at specific clubs. Please check with the Club’s Hospitality Desk for additional details.
Course Care
Proper etiquette for all golfers begins upon arrival at the Club and continues through the round and until the golfer leaves the property. The following are our general etiquette guidelines:
– All members and guests must check in at the pro shop prior to setting out on the course.
– Each of our clubs provides locker rooms for changing in and out of golf attire and shoes. With this in mind, the changing of shoes or clothes is prohibited anywhere other than in the locker rooms.
– Golf is a game of concentration. Consequently, all those on or near the course and practice areas should have their cell phone ringers turned off. We also ask that in consideration for those relaxing in the Clubhouse, that you take and make all calls outside, in areas that do not interfere with play. Those expecting calls should set their phones to either an inaudible alarm or vibration mode.
– Upon completion of a shot, divots shall be replaced or fix with provided sand and ball marks on greens repaired.
Riding Carts
When utilizing golf carts, all members and guests agree to exercise good judgment and reasonable care in the operation of the vehicle, and to abide by the following:
– Carts are for use by players on the golf course only. Any other use must be approved by the management team.
– Carts may only be driven onto the grass when and where allowed.
– Carts are never to be driven onto the course past restraining ropes. Carts should not be driven closer than 50 yards of the green.
– Carts are to be kept on cart paths as much as possible consistent with efficient play.
– Carts must stay on cart paths around tees and greens. Whenever carts are allowed off paths, we ask that you scatter the carts about the hole (fairway or rough) and return to path when prompted to do so.
– Carts must follow arrows and cart signs, particularly in front of or around the greens and on fairways.
– There are times when valid handicap flags allow modification of the above rules.
– Anyone driving a cart must have a valid driver’s license.
– A maximum of two carts will be assigned per foursome.
Members are responsible for any and all damage caused by the use of a cart by the member or member’s guests, and members must return the cart to the golf shop in the same condition as when received. It is expressly understood that the Bay Club will not be liable for damages of any kind, whether to the person and/or property, or other loss, arising from the use of, operation of, from whatever cause, related to the use and operation of the cart by members and their guests. Members agree to pay for or reimburse the Bay Club for, on return of the cart, all charges incidental to all breakages or damage, other than ordinary wear, from such member’s and their guest’s use of carts. Please report all cart damage to the golf shop associate.
Push Cart
Pushcarts are permitted; however, all cart directional signs must be followed and carts must be kept 10 feet from all greens. Personal pushcarts are permitted; overnight storage policies vary by Club.
Pace of Play
Golf is more fun when played without delay. It is the responsibility of each member and guest to play his or her round in a fast and orderly manner. Please keep the following guidelines in mind to ensure a timely round:
– The target time for completion of 18 holes is four hours. Restrictions will be placed on persistently slow players. Golf shop staff will administer the pace of play at four hours or less and/or keeping up with the group ahead of you. If there is an open hole in front of your group and a faster group is behind you, you must either close the gap or let the group play through. If a group remains out of position, the golf shop staff has the authority to pull the group aside and let faster players go through; move the group to the correct position on the golf course; or pull the group off the golf course and assign the group a later tee time.
– During primetime hours, we strongly suggest that all groups on par 3s invite the next group waiting on the previous tee to hit their tee shots onto the green. Once they have hit their tee shots, the group on the green should proceed with putting out.
Multiple violations of these rules will subject a Member to loss of the opportunity to make any tee times for a period of time established by the Club.
Length of Play
Reservations can be made for 9 and 18 holes; however, full green fees apply to both.
Inclement Weather Cancellation Guideline
During inclement weather conditions, the Course Superintendent or Director of Golf will determine if and when the course will be closed and cancellation fees will be waived (note Golf Cancellation and No-Show Guideline below). Inclement weather may not dictate the closing of the course and in that case refunds will not be issued.
Rain Check Guideline
Should your group wish to stop play due to inclement weather, paid players receive a rain check provided they have not played more than nine holes. No rainchecks will be issued once your group has teed off on the back nine of the course played. Rain checks may be redeemed within six months of your original tee time. Non-members may only use their rain check voucher while playing with a member.
Golf Replay Guideline
Members may replay the course based on availability. Please check with the golf shop after you have completed your round to book a replay. The replay green fee is $50; discounts apply, depending on membership category.
Driving Range
– All members with a tee time will receive an appropriate warm-up period on the driving range. We do ask that you limit this time to 30 minutes when others are waiting. Guests are welcome to use the driving range only when they are with a member who has a tee time scheduled for that day. Members within our Club West Collection will receive permanent color-coded bag tags designating membership level. Guests will receive dated single-use bag tags with the same color designation as their host, so that they will receive corresponding benefits. All members and guests must attach their bag tags to their bags and ensure that they are clearly displayed at all times.
– There will be designated zones for each membership level within the Club West Collection. The teaching area, however, will be open to all levels.

Club West Diamond members without a tee time receive complimentary access to the driving range everyday, except before noon on the weekends. Club West Platinum members without a tee time receive complimentary access to the driving range after 2 pm. All driving range access without a tee time is based on availability.
– One person is permitted per hitting bay.
– We encourage our junior golfers ages 8–16 to use the driving range. When not with an instructor, juniors may use the driving range once they have taken a Junior Safety Orientation class.

– In an effort to repair and restore the range tee, please fill your divots and practice area with sand/seed mix where applicable.
– No practice is allowed on non-maintained areas.
– No pets are allowed on the practice area.
– Please practice safety while on the range: Be aware of those around you and any maintenance associate on the range. Maintain a safe distance from others swinging golf clubs, do not walk in front of the hitting line, do not pick up balls past the hitting line, avoid hitting over the end of the range, and hit away from any range associate picking up golf balls. Boundaries at each range differ and must be followed; otherwise, a suspension of privileges may result.

In the unfortunate event of the death of the primary member having membership privileges under a Family membership, the membership, including all of its rights and benefits, will vest in the spouse or an active adult child listed on the account as per written on the decedent’s will. Until the award of the membership and written notice thereof is provided to the Club, the Club will freeze the account for up to three (3) months. Legacy transfer will be counted under this circumstance.
The Club reserves the right to not transfer the membership to active family members if the Club, in its discretion, is unable to determine the person who is lawfully entitled to receive the membership. When ownership of the membership has been determined, written notice thereof and the relevant documentation shall be promptly delivered to the Club.
The disposition of the membership must be determined within three (3) months after the death of the primary member, within such three month period the title to the membership must be addressed. The Club has the right to suspend membership privileges until ownership of the membership has been determined and the Club has received written notice thereof and the appropriate documentation. The Club shall also have the right in either such case to deem the membership resigned in its discretion. The spouse or active adult child awarded the membership shall have the right to determine which Immediate Family Members will be permitted to use the Club Facilities under the membership.
The Club will not become involved in any domestic or other dispute concerning ownership or issuance of a membership and does not have any liability or responsibility for resolution of such disputes. If the Club is uncertain as to who should receive a refund, if any, associated with a membership, the Club in its discretion may file an interpleader action or similar type action and thereby deposit the refund amount into the registry of a court of competent jurisdiction for the court to determine who is entitled to the refund without recourse to the Club. The Club shall be entitled to a reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs from the Member in question for filing such interpleader action. The Club reserves the right to petition the probate court to determine who is entitled to the refund, if any, once the refund becomes payable.
