SOCIAL DISTANCE GUIDELINES:

Players, Parents and Coaches will maintain a 6-foot distance while at practice. Not applicable to player(s) and parents coming from the same household.
There will be markers (tapes or cones) that are 6 feet apart, these will be the resting points for players where they can put down their belongings and to return to for water breaks.
During practices, players who are getting in line will also need to maintain 6-foot distance from one another. We will use tape or cones to mark each position.
Players will be allowed to touch the balls during practice and should sanitize their hands before and after practice ends. Hand sanitizers are available with our coaches at practice. This will take effect starting Saturday 4/10/2021.
During practices, when it is time to pick up balls, players are NOT to pick up the balls, they can help by only pushing the balls into one corner with their racquet and/or their feet. The coaches will then pick up the balls and place them into the ball baskets.
~~When players work on serve, they must have glove on their tossing hand. Players are advised to bring their on gloves and we will provide gloves for players who do not have them.~~
If coaches, players or parents who are experiencing shortness of breath, coughing, or signs of illness, we would ask that they do NOT come to practice.
Parents may stay during the practice to watch their players but we do ask that they exercise social distancing and to observe our practice from outside of the Tennis courts (behind the fence). They may come in every so often to see our practices but staying for the entire duration of practice might not be possible.
Parents must wear mask at all time while being on the tennis courts.
Coaches must wear mask or face covering at all time during practice, and only except for when taking a drink of water or sport drinks.
The county does not require players to wear masks during exercising, however, we highly-highly encourage that they do keep their mask on while playing and only to remove mask when taking a drink of water or sport drink.

We understand that not all players could resume practice in May and to provide more time for them, we have placed a 6-month (180 days) extension on all lesson packages that were purchased prior to March 14th of 2020.

For packages that were purchased prior to March 14th, 2020, players will have 300 days total to use up these packages; 120-day period plus 180-day extension. We will not able to extend the package any further. Thank you!
