QUAIL CREEK TENNIS CLUB MISSION STATEMENT:

Mission Statement of Quail Creek Tennis Club

The Quail Creek Tennis Club (QCTC) will follow guidelines as set forth by "The Rules and Regulations of Tennis by the United States Tennis Association". However, the QCTC is a club composed of senior members, therefore, some of the rules need to be adjusted to support our members. Any disputes of problems should be solved through sportsmanship, fairness, and the "spirit of the game".

GUEST POLICY

GUESTS USING THE QUAIL CREEK TENNIS COURTS

Quail Creek tennis courts are for QC residents and their guests.

Per the CC&R's, guests may be family or friends who are here at the invitation of a resident.

The courts at Quail Creek are NOT public, therefore, play by outside guests will be limited:

* The tennis club sets the guest policy for those days/times that are established for "club play".

* The guest policy for the other "open times" is governed by the POA rules and regulations.

* In general, guest players must be accompanied by, and at the invitation of a resident.

* Court time may be reserved up to ONE week in advance.

COURT COURTESY

1. Be on time.

2. All players bring a can of unopened balls.

3. If you spin the racquet and win, you open the new can of balls whether you choose to serve or to receive.

4. Turn off all cell phones.

5. Bring enough water so you don’t have to make frequent trips to the drinking fountain.

6. Play to win at all times. Your score affects your partner and opponents.

7. We all have bad days or disagreements with calls. This is no excuse for “tanking” or not putting forth our best effort.

8. The time limit for switching courts on odd games is 90 seconds.

*However, we are a senior community and occasional bathroom breaks and longer switch times are sometimes needed.

9. When taking practice serves, make sure the person to whom you are serving is looking and is ready to receive your practice serves.

10. All balls should be cleared from the playing surface before starting a new point or second serve.

11. When changing courts at the end of an odd game, all balls should be picked up and placed on the net caddy tray.

12. When retrieving and giving balls to your opponents or partner, (1) Make sure they are looking at you and (2) Hit the ball towards the person so they can catch it on the first or second bounce.
