Code of Conduct Policy
Together We Golf (TWG) is committed to creating a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive environment for all participants. We ask every member of our community to treat fellow golfers, guests, staff, and course personnel with courtesy, professionalism, and respect.
Harassment, discrimination, intimidation, disruptive behaviour, or any conduct that negatively impacts the experience of others will not be tolerated.
TWG reserves the right to address any behaviour that is inconsistent with our values and community standards. Depending on the circumstances, this may include a warning, removal from an event, suspension of participation, or permanent removal from the TWG Community without refund.
By participating in TWG events, members agree to contribute to a positive, supportive, and enjoyable experience for everyone.
Cancellation Policy
Each Together We Golf (TWG) event requires a minimum number of participants to proceed. If the minimum registration requirement is not met, TWG reserves the right to cancel or reschedule the event. Participants will be notified as early as possible in the event of a cancellation or schedule change.
If you need to withdraw from an event, please notify us by email at togetherwegolf@gmail.com at least 14 days before the event date. Because tee times and event arrangements are secured with our golf course partners in advance, refunds cannot be provided for individual cancellations made within 14 days of the event. This policy applies regardless of the reason for cancellation, including illness, injury, emergencies, travel issues, work commitments, or scheduling conflicts.
Refund Policy
Participants who cancel more than 14 days before the event are eligible for a full refund. Cancellations received within 14 days of the event are not eligible for a refund. No refunds will be issued for no-shows.
Approved refunds will be issued to the original method of payment and processed within 3–5 business days.
If you are unable to attend, you may transfer your registration to another TWG Community member. It is the participant’s responsibility to arrange the transfer and notify TWG of the replacement attendee before the event. Please review all event details and dates carefully before completing your registration.
Inclement Weather Policy
Golf is played in a variety of weather conditions, and light rain or unsettled weather does not automatically result in a cancellation.
If the golf course determines that the round cannot be played due to weather or course conditions, rain checks will be issued by the golf course for the golf portion of the event, in accordance with the course’s policies.
Any scheduled meals, social gatherings, or non-golf event activities will proceed as planned unless otherwise communicated. All decisions regarding course playability and weather-related cancellations are made by the golf course’s professional staff and are final.
