Court Etiquette

Just a reminder, our parties provide a fun and relaxing atmosphere, where players can have friendly competition. We simply ask attendees to follow these guidelines:

1. Introduce yourself to the new players on the court. This will make for a more wholesome experience.

2. Be cordial to your partners and opponents.

3. Refrain from giving instructions to anyone on the court unless they request them.

4. Do not gun for the person at the net with fast and hard hitting especially in mixed doubles.

5. Kindly pick up the balls for the server. It saves time and is just good etiquette.

6. When yo leave the court, please find the 3 balls you played with and leave them for the next group of players.

7. Do not call a ball out when you or your partner are unsure about a line call. It is unsportsmanlike and can stir unpleasant reactions.
Check USTA or other tennis websites for the official rules.

8. If you are scheduled to play the next hour, do not take more than a 10-minute break. There are players who play only 2 hours and could use the complete playtime.

During the warmer months, I get more opportunities to play. It’s really funny that newcomers who have never seen me play are surprised that I can actually hit the ball. As with any tennis players, sometimes you play like a super star and other times not at all. For me I can never trust myself to play well and I like to work myself into a match as a “fill in” whenever there’s an odd number…

A player returned from her weekend trip to England and probably didn’t have time to stop by the bank. As she was counting out quarters and dimes to pay me, the player from Budd Lake jokingly said – “I’d better pay you now before the quarters come!” and everyone burst into laughter…
