Club tennis policies are to insure safety and guarantee a pleasant
atmosphere for all members. The tennis rules are to maximize
the enjoyment and safe play for all tennis players.
Priority On Courts: Adults have priority on courts weekdays after 5:00pm, weekends, and holidays. Adult members playing with their children shall be treated as adult play.
Reserving Courts: Courts may be reserved by any member 24 hours in advance (through a sign-up sheet in the Pro Shop or after-hours in the cabana), unless already reserved for club round robins, special events, clinics, lessons, an approved USTA match or practice, etc. However, the player(s) reserving the courts shall forfeit the reserved court if not present and on the court within 10 minutes of the reserved time.
Court 2 will be held open for ball machine use until all other courts are reserved.
Time Limits for Play: Court time is limited to 1 hour for singles and 1-1/2 hours for doubles. Play may continue beyond these time limits if no one is waiting. However, players may not re-sign for the same court or for any other court without first coming off of the courts to allow waiting player(s) to play. Courts shall be surrendered immediately upon expiration of time.
Proper Attire and Behavior: Players must wear proper tennis attire, including shirts. Only regulation tennis shoes may be worn on the courts. No profanity, un-sportsmanlike conduct, or excessive noise will be allowed on the courts. Leave the court in as good or better condition than it was in when you arrived for play. Please understand and use tennis etiquette at all times.
Misc: NO glass, bikes, wagons, roller-skates, roller blades, skateboards, scooters, toys or pets of any kind are allowed on the courts.
Children: No children will be permitted in the court area unless they are playing tennis. Children should be directly supervised at all times while at the tennis facility.
Guests: A member must accompany all guests. Guest fees should be paid at the Pro Shop prior to play. If the Pro Shop is closed, the fee must be paid the next time the shop is open. Fees for guests who live in Wake County are $3.00 during the week and $5.00 on the weekend. All out-of-town guests are free of charges.
Problems: Any problem with the courts should be reported to the General Manager.
