times when the courts are not available. Adult and junior clinics, ladies team matches, and
social events take precedence over recreational play. If you would like to make certain that a
court is available, please call Scott in advance. In addition, please throw away your trash and
respect the courts (for example, please don’t lean on the nets).

Appropriate tennis attire and tennis shoes are required. Cut off jeans, cut off shirts, swimsuits,
black soled shoes or non-tennis shoes are not allowed. If you have additional questions, please
speak to Scott.

tennis racquet to play (tennis racquets for all ages are NOT provided for rental use).
