Rules for Making Court Reservations

 

Two. Two. Ten!  These are the basic rules for making court reservations. 

• 2-hour maximum reservation time per group. 
• 2-court maximum.
• Maximum of 10 people (on two courts).

 

Other court reservation rules to know:

• Groups may not reserve additional courts or time in the name of other group members.
• Singles play reservations are limited to two (2) hours, no more than one (1) of which may be in morning Prime Time.

 

These rules are necessary to give all Club members fair opportunities to reserve courts and to comply with POA guidelines and Club policies.
