Attire

Players shall wear appropriate attire and acceptable soft court shoes.

Court Maintenance

In order to maintain our courts in optimum condition, members are requested to brush their courts and clear the lines after playing when they are the last group using the court.  Appropriate equipment shall be available on each court.

Hours

The courts open each day, weather permitting, at 8am.  Play will not commence before 8am and is FORBIDDEN when the courts are locked or not playable.  Play shall not commence until all lower courts are ready for play.  The court maintenance contractor shall have full authority for determining the playability of the courts.

The club tennis pro has priority on the Upper Court on non-holiday weekdays, and after 1pm on weekends and holidays.

Adult members have priority on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.  Adult members playing with their own children have equal priority with all-adult groups after 3pm on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

Juniors must vacate the courts immediately to any waiting adults on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, and weekdays after 5pm.  Before 5pm on weekdays, juniors have the same privileges as adults, and must abide by the same playing rules as adults.

If players are waiting, singles or doubles will be restricted to one hour but members are encouraged to mix in waiting players or give up the court after a set has been played.  Court etiquette shall prevail at all times.

Attire

Appropriate clothing and footwear must be worn.

Hours

Paddle play is to be between the hours of 8 am and 10:30 pm.  Playing time is restricted to one hour if there are people waiting to play, but members are encouraged to mix in waiting players or give up the court after a set has been played.  Lights are to be turned off at 10:30 pm.

Paddle Hut (Clubhouse)

Players using the courts/paddle hut are responsible for turning off lights and heaters and locking the clubhouse doors.  Please leave the courts, the porch and the hut clean and remove your trash.  The door code combination can be found in the Welcome Packet on the member portal.

Background

Tennis and paddle facilities are maintained for the benefit and at the expense of dues paying members.  We welcome guests to introduce them to our club and the courts.  Also, to offer reciprocity to non-members of other clubs in the paddle community, who occasionally invite our members as guests for special games or competitions.

Policy

A member must accompany their guests and is responsible for ensuring they follow club guidelines.  Please be courteous and inclusive to members who may be waiting for a court or a game. 

Members who have chosen an “inactive” status may play a maximum of five times per season.  

Any alternative policy suggestions addressed to the board in writing will be promptly considered.

Announcements

Team schedules shall be communicated via email and when practicable, posted at the club or on the member portal. A current membership list, as well as other announcements is posted on the member portal 

Club Appearance

Please help keep your Club neat and tidy.  Place your own litter, and used balls and cans, in the trash receptacles.  Pick up and dispose of trash you notice in the area.  The club will work most effectively if everyone volunteers to help.

Pets

For the benefit of the membership at large, please do not bring your pets to the Club unless you plan to leave them in your (well-ventilated) car.  Your cooperation is appreciated.

Smoking

Smoking is not permitted in the paddle hut or other indoor facilities.  Please refrain from smoking on the tennis and paddle decks when other people are present.  Please also police your cigarette and cigar butts.
