Weekend Warrior Tennis (Sundays)

**PLEASE NOTE** that we typically meet at 9AM unless one or more people comment wanting to meet at 8AM. If you show up later and we have to rotate people in then those who show up by 9 AM will have court priority. It all depends on how many people we have vs. court space on any given day. Keep monitoring the comments for any changes though keep in mind I typically don’t monitor comments after 9 AM. **RULES:** By signing up you agree to follow these rules: 1\. No instruction or orders are allowed on any of our group courts\. If two or more people are in agreement then they’re welcome to exchange instructions so long as they relinquish their court positions and don’t disrupt active players\. If anyone is instructing or ordering you and you’re not comfortable then please tell them or let me know\. Everyone should feel free to play however they wish without being directed without agreement\, most especially beginners\. 2\. No formal locked\-team matches are allowed on any of our group\-reserved courts\. If people are in agreement then they’re welcome to find another court not in use by our group to play strict matches\. If we need to rotate people in and out due to lack of enough courts then we’ll use a structure I learned for balanced clinic matches\. This typically includes quick matches to 5 points after which everyone rotates clockwise one position\. This keeps those waiting rotated back in often and also discourages “dream\-team” scenarios trying to hold the court via wins\. 3\. We are foremost beginner\-friendly and not aggressively competitive or an instruction\-oriented group\. A little light and friendly competition or giving a quick tip so long as you’re not holding up the court is OK but please pace yourself against the person you’re hitting to \(e\.g\. hit softer to members that might not be as good or as aggressive as you\)\. Everyone should be made to feel welcome and free regardless of skill level\. Beginners most especially should always feel comfortable here\. 4\. Please make sure you’re signed up using a name that matches your Meetup name\. New players should always check in with me so I can mark you down as having checked in\. Anyone showing up without a Meetup RSVP will be asked to do so before they can participate in the event\. If you’re bringing one guest that’s fine\, just make sure to mark them on your RSVP\. 5\. If I feel you’re consistently not following the rules I have the right to ask you to relinquish your position on the court\. Please don’t sign up and attend if you don’t agree to following any one rule here\. We are largely democratic but I reserve the right to make any final calls if I deem it necessary for any reason\, such as breaking up and remixing long\-locked groups if we have more than one court\. **EQUIPMENT:** Please bring your own racquet and water, as we don’t provide those. I always have some balls for at least one court, but feel free to bring your own in case we need to branch out over more than one court. **DISCLAIMER:** Courts are subject to availability and weather. If you make plans to attend please be prepared to cancel or adjust our location as needed. Furthermore, by attending you agree to be fully responsible for your own health and safety. Each person is responsible to take a break for rest and water at their own discretion.
