Pre-and Post-Season Play

Club tennis courts are open and available for the membership. Until the official Club season and the tennis reservation system begins, all court time is on a “first come, first served” basis. When players are waiting, a one-hour court limit will be in force. The same regulations that guide regular season play also apply to pre-and post-season periods.
