Rules for use of HOA Tennis Courts
PURPOSE
Canterwood Homeowners Association Tennis Courts located at Nuthatch Drive are provided for and maintained by the Homeowners Association for use by residents in good standing. In order to ensure equitable usage by homeowners and their guests, the following rules govern usage and play.
RESERVATION AND COURT AVAILABILITY
Tennis courts may be reserved up to one week in advance of play. To reserve a court, call 851-6158 between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Reservations will be posted daily at the tennis courts. Back-to-back reservations may not be made. Failure to appear for reservations without prior notice may be grounds for refusing future reservations. If courts are not reserved, availability will be on a first-come, first-served basis. (Guests – see below). Players without reservations, however, shall give way to players with reservations regardless of the time played (see DURATION OF PLAY, below).
ATTIRE
Proper tennis attire is required, including rubber-soled tennis shoes. Shoes with black soles, golf or street shoes are not permitted at any time. Other types of shoes can damage the court surface. Shirts must be worn at all times.
COURT ETIQUETTE
Appropriate court behavior is required of all players. Cooperation and respect are essential on these courts to avoid interfering with play on the adjacent court. If your tennis ball rolls onto the other court, please do not go after it, or call for it, until the players on that court have completed their point. Courtesy for other players enhances court use for everyone. Spectators and waiting players should remain outside the court area.
DURATION OF PLAY
Court time is normally limited to one hour for singles and to one and one-half courts for doubles when players are waiting. Reservations take priority over players without reservations.
SCHEDULE
Canterwood Homeowners Association will post the hours of play and reservation list at the tennis courts.
GUESTS
A homeowner must accompany the guest(s). A homeowner and guest(s) may reserve and use only one court unless the adjacent court is open. If a homeowner and guest(s) use a second adjacent open court, one court must be surrendered upon the arrival of other homeowners desiring to play tennis.
