• No glass on the tennis courts.

• Only tennis shoes (non-marking shoes) are allowed on the courts.

• Shirts must be worn at all times.

• Court Time:

  • Non-patrons can reserve court time 24 hours in advance. Payment is required at the time the reservation is made.

• Drills:

  • Patrons can go online, use our app, or call 7 days in advance starting at 6:00am to register for drills.

  • Non-patrons can go online, use our app, or call 2 days in advance starting at 6:00am to register for drills.

• 24-hour notice is required in the event of a cancellation or full court/drill fee will apply.

• Patron memberships are set to auto-renew annually. To cancel an upcoming auto-renewal, please call the front desk. If your membership has recently auto-renewed and you would like it cancelled, please email us at webmaster@fwtec.org

• Reservations are first come, first served.

• Language & Behavior: FWTEC does not tolerate foul, abusive or derogatory language, racquet throwing, ball abuse, or other actions deemed to create an unsafe environment.

• Court Time Etiquette

  • Arrive on time and wait in the lobby until your scheduled court time.

  • Do not walk on court before your time has started, unless the prior court time participants are packing up and finishing. For safety reasons, do not walk across courts.

  • End your court times/drills a couple of minutes early so you are packed up and walking off the court at the end of your assigned court time. We all want to finish that last game/point, but please be respectful of those who are following you onto the court. Besides, that last point is never a good one because everyone on the court feels pressured and rushed because everyone is watching.

  • Clean up the used tennis balls, cans and other garbage you may have. Since we have back-to-back court times scheduled from sunup to sundown, there is not time to clean the courts until the last point is played.

• Lost or Stolen Items: Leave the facility with only items that are yours. FWTEC is not responsible for lost or stolen items. Please ask the front desk, if you would like to use a locker key.

• Fitness Room: The fitness room may be used while waiting for a participant in a class or 1 hour before or after a court reservation. Please be courteous of others waiting to use the equipment and limit your time.

• Exhibiting poor behavior or behavior that is deemed not consistent with organization policies and values will result in being asked to leave the premises by management with possible additional penalties up to suspension from future play and revocation of patron membership.
