Review Tennis Policy in Time for Summer Play
M
AC adult and junior tennis players are strongly encouraged to review the updated court usage and reservations policy, which was recently updated. There are copies of the new policy on display in the tennis areas. Members may also find this information on the MAC website. The intent of the updated policy is to help all MAC tennis players enjoy the maximum playing time allowed while respecting the demand for general play, lessons, clinics, teams and tournament usage.
Among other important points, the new policy clearly separates frequency of individual court usage from frequency of court reservations by an individual player. Additionally, it defines two calendar time frames for variations in the policy: high season (after Labor Day to June 15) and low season (June 16 through Labor Day). Since most or all league play is complete by June 16, there are more court times available after this date. Therefore,
the court usage limitation does not apply. All other aspects of the tennis court reser- vations and usage policy continue to apply during low season. Players who want to get a jump start on the fall leagues and club tournament season should especially appreciate the relaxed low-season court- usage policy.
MAC adopts quick start for juniors
The Quick Start program for junior players age 10 and younger is being adopted in many tennis programs across the United States. The ultimate goal of the program is to attract more youth to tennis in hopes that some develop into highly competitive players.
The program is unique because it uses courts and equipment that are scaled down in size to be appropriate for enthusiastic, young players. The Quick Start court lines are included in the outdoor courts resur- facing project, which is planned for early summer. The standard size courts will have fainter secondary lines, which define the smaller courts.
Summer barbecues on the way Summer tennis barbecues are
wonderful outdoor, offsite tennis socials that offer a perfect blend of friendly tennis, fun and food. This is at least the 15th year that Head Pro Wayne Pickard and the tennis staff have offered these popular summer events for adult MAC members of all playing levels. In addi- tion to lively tennis, past attendees have enjoyed watching Chef Wayne serve up a burger and lob it onto a waiting bun. And if that isn’t incentive enough, members should consider the possibility that they could expand their circle of tennis part- ners and opponents. Weather permitting, the barbecues are held monthly at Gabriel Park in Southwest Portland. Adult evening summer fun begins 6 p.m. and goes until dusk. Sign up online at
theMAC.com or call the Tennis Office at 503-517-7592.
