25 Golf Outfits for Teen Girls

Junior golf has a clothing problem nobody talks about: most of what fits a fifteen year old is either cut for a forty year old member or borrowed from tennis and not allowed on the course. Between those two is a narrow gap, and this is what lives in it.

The rules at most clubs come down to three things. A collar or a mock neck, no denim, and a hem that is not a tennis skirt. Everything below clears all three while still looking like something you would choose. Colour is where junior golf is genuinely more fun than the adult version, so nothing here apologises for it. If a longer sleeve suits you better, the modest edit covers that, and the cold weather list deals with rain and cold.

One practical note: junior sizing runs out well before most players stop growing, so shop the smallest adult sizes too. Our guide to the best golf apparel is where to look for pieces that last more than one season.

#1: Lilac Polo with a White Skort

A lilac polo above a white skort. As uncomplicated as junior golf gets, and it passes every dress code in the country. The skort should have a real inner short, not a token liner.

#2: Navy Sleeveless Polo with a Pleated Skort

A navy sleeveless polo with a pleated skort. Sleeveless polos count as collared almost everywhere, which is the loophole worth knowing when it is thirty degrees at the first tee.

#3: Mint Green Polo with Navy Shorts

A mint polo with navy shorts. Mint is everywhere in junior golf right now and it earns it, because it photographs well and sits beside navy without any effort.

#4: White Sun Hoodie with a Black Skort

A white sun hoodie over a black skort. Sun hoodies are the best thing to happen to junior golf: thinner than a t shirt, hood up on exposed holes, no sunscreen on the neck.

#5: Pink Polo with White Shorts

A pink polo with white shorts. The classic, and the reason it is a classic is that it works on a July afternoon and still looks tidy in the clubhouse photo afterwards.

#6: Striped Polo with a Navy Skort

A striped polo above a navy skort. Stripes are the safest pattern in golf: never too loud, never boring, and they hide a grass mark better than a solid pale colour.

#7: Black Quarter Zip with a White Skort

A black quarter zip over a white skort. The zip covers the collar rule on a cold morning without needing a polo underneath, which is one less layer to carry at the turn.

#8: Coral Top with Grey Shorts

A coral top with grey shorts. Coral flatters more or less everyone, and grey below keeps it grounded so the outfit reads sporty rather than costume.

#9: Sky Blue Polo with a Plaid Skort

A sky blue polo with a plaid skort. Plaid is the oldest pattern in the game and it needs a plain top, so pick one colour out of the plaid and let the rest sit quiet.

#10: Grey Marl Polo with Navy Leggings

A heathered grey polo with navy leggings for a cold round. Leggings under a polo are allowed almost everywhere in junior golf, and they are warmer than any trouser at the same weight.

#11: Yellow Polo with White Skort

A yellow polo with a white skort. Yellow is the most visible colour on a course, which is genuinely useful in a junior field, and it looks good in flat morning light.

#12: Navy Polo Dress

A navy golf dress with a built in short. One decision, nothing to tuck, and no waistband to fight with over eighteen holes. Check the liner reaches mid thigh.

#13: Purple Top with Black Shorts

A purple top with black shorts. Purple is underused in golf and stands out for exactly that reason, and black below stops it from reading as anything other than deliberate.

#14: Lavender Sun Shirt with a White Skort

A lavender long sleeve sun shirt over a white skort. Sleeves mean no reapplying sunscreen every ninety minutes, which is the difference between finishing a junior round comfortable and not.

#15: Green Polo with Beige Shorts

A green polo with beige shorts. Green on green sounds wrong and looks right, as long as the shade of the polo is clearly different from the grass rather than nearly the same.

#16: Black and White Colour Block Polo

A colour blocked black and white polo with a plain skort. Two clear colours, nothing else, and it is the sharpest option on this list for a competitive round.

#17: Red Polo with Navy Skort

A red polo with a navy skort. The most traditional sporting colours there are, and the pairing that never looks like it is trying. Good for a team event where kit matters.

#18: Windbreaker over a Sleeveless Polo

A packable windbreaker over a sleeveless polo. Wind is what makes a cool day cold on an open course, and a shell that folds into a pocket costs no space in a junior bag.

#19: Peach Polo with White Capris

A peach polo with white capris. Capris are the sensible middle between shorts and trousers on a day that cannot decide, and peach keeps the whole thing light.

#20: Navy Sun Hoodie with a Grey Skort

A navy sun hoodie with a grey skort. Darker sun hoodies run hotter than pale ones, so this is a spring or autumn outfit rather than a July one.

#21: Turquoise Polo with Navy Shorts

A turquoise polo with navy shorts. Turquoise reads sharply against green from a distance, which is why it turns up so often on tour, and it suits strong summer light.

#22: White Polo with a Printed Skort

A plain white polo over a printed skort. Print below, quiet above, every time. A bold skort with a busy top is the single most common mistake in junior golf wear.

#23: Cream Quarter Zip with Black Leggings

A cream quarter zip over black leggings. The warmest combination here at the lowest weight, and the one to reach for on a February practice round when nothing else is comfortable.

#24: Orange Top with White Skort

An orange top with a white skort. Orange is rare on a golf course and it should not be, because it looks superb in autumn light against a fairway that has gone gold.

#25: Matching Two Piece Set

A matching polo and skort in one colour. Sets take the decision away entirely on a competition morning, which is worth more than it sounds when the tee time is early.
