Crystal Falls Golf Club, at 3400 Crystal Falls Parkway, is Leander’s 18-hole municipal golf course.
The policy changes were needed because the previous guidance was outdated and lacked clarity, according to agenda documents. The revisions were intended to mitigate liability for the city and improve the customer experience.
What you need to know
The facility will now be open from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. seven days per week, and the last available tee time will be one hour before closing. The course was previously open from 7 a.m. to dusk.
People can buy range balls until one hour before closing, and the driving range and practice area will close on Tuesdays from two hours before closing until 11 a.m. on Wednesdays for weekly maintenance.
The rules change also clarified that alcoholic beverages will be permitted only if there is an event happening.
Regarding accepted clothing on the course, the new guidelines clarify that proper golf attire must be worn on the course. Proper golf attire includes: collared or mock turtleneck shirts; flat front, pleated or bermuda style shorts, skirts or skorts and slacks or denim pants in good repair, according to the documents.
Clothing items not allowed on the course include: cut-off shorts, t-shirts, tank tops, gym shorts, sweat pants, bathing suits and any clothing with offensive language. Additionally, metal spiked shoes are not allowed at the facility.
Casual clothing is allowed for spectators and restaurant guests. A full list of guidelines can be found here.

Jogging, general exercise, bicycling and dog walking are prohibited at the course unless it’s part of a sanctioned activity.
