Policies that everyone should know about:
There are only four circumstances that allow a vehicle to drive past the entry rope at the tennis courts – 1) You have a valid handicapped parking permit 2) You are a contractor or member that has equipment or a delivery (other than children) to make 3) You are a lifeguard, coach, or county referee reporting for your official shift 4) You have a broken or sprained leg or you’re nine months pregnant and expecting a baby at any moment. Please do not drive by when the ball is in play and please watch for people and drive very slowly.
Any member can invite a non-member guest to use the facilities at any time. However, there are limits to guests that live within a 1-1/2 mile radius of the club. These guests are considered prospective members.In order to prevent prospective members from abusing the guest policy and avoiding the cost of membership, they are allowed to use the facilities as a guest only two times per year. We ask all members to respect the spirit of this policy and not use the guest policy to give someone free repeated use of the club.
Tennis court rules and etiquette: (current through 2018)
1. Tennis courts are to be used by Meadowgrove members and their guests for tennis only. All guests playing tennis must be playing on the same court as their host member. The only exception to this is usage by approved Non-Member “Practice Teams and/or League Teams” with current rental contract in place.
2. To avoid undue wear, no dogs, skateboards, or skates are allowed on the courts.
3. Players must observe proper tennis etiquette. No abusive language, physical threats, or physical force will be tolerated.
4. Reservations must be made via “reservemycourt.com.” A printed confirmation or smart phone confirmation will assure you of a court. Only 1 court may be reserved at a time per membership
5. Please be on time for your reservation. There will be a 20 minute grace period after the start of the reservation. The court can then be reserved by another player.
6. Sign up duration will be for 2 hours or less, except for scheduled league matches. League matches may retain the signed-up court until the league match is completed.
