Shoes:

We kindly request that you wear fitness light colored sole shoes or tennis shoes to prevent any damage or scratches to the surface. This helps prevent any unwanted marks or stains that can occur from dark colored sole or non-tennis shoes. Additionally, please refrain from scuffing or scraping the courts, as this can lead to permanent damage. By following these guidelines, we can all enjoy our tennis and pickleball facilities for years to come.

Beverages and Gum on Courts:

Only water is permitted on the court. All other beverages are to remain in the patio and lobby areas. Beverages, aside from water, stain the courts.  In addition, please refrain from chewing gum on the court. Gum ruins the surface of the courts. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.

Quiet Environment:

We ask that all members and guests maintain a quiet environment when they are walking to and from their designated tennis or pickleball courts. This ensures that other players are not disturbed during their game and can focus on their performance.
