Reminders

If you are the last player(s) off the court at night please turn off the tennis court lights (check reservations for the last reservation for the day). There is a light switch just outside the gate of Court 1. The lights are on a timer and need to be shut off each night to have the timer function correctly the next day.

Also, please remember to register your guests for each visit to the club via the Online Guest Registration form.

Ladies Tennis Night

Ladies tennis has changed from 4pm to 6pm on Sundays so more ladies can attend. Apologies as we are trying to find the best time for most ladies to attend. Hopefully 4pm to 6pm will work out. If there are no sign-ups or not enough to fill 2 courts within 24 hours advance time, one or both courts will be cancelled depending on the # of players signed up. So please sign up within 24 hours in advance!
