Dress Code

• Players must wear suitable tennis attire and shoes when playing. Blue jeans, cut-offs and muscle shirts (or no shirt) are not permitted.

• Only non-marking tennis shoes (i.e., that won't leave streaks of color on the courts) are allowed on the courts.

WLTC Weather Policy

• Members are required to exit the court area when weather conditions make it unsafe to play. WLTC staff may also require members to cease play and will inform members when play can resume on the courts.

• While there is some latitude for discretion, generally the WLTC will be open only if temperature exceeds 7 degrees.

Assignment of Courts and the Court Rotation Board

Junior Memberships

• If there are empty courts Juniors can play anytime.

• If all courts are full and it is between 8am-noon (all days) or after 5pm (Monday-Friday), Adult and Student Members have priority over Junior Members. If Juniors are playing during this time, they can only be bumped when their time has expired.

• A Junior Member with an Adult Member can bump on courts 10 - 11 regardless of the hour if the time on the Rotation Board has expired – except during special events.

SAFETY

• If any court activity poses an increased safety risk to adjoining tennis courts, participants may be required to move to a more isolated court (being courts 1, 2, 9, 10, or 11). Determination of when any particular tennis activity needs to be confined to certain isolated court, and which court, is in the sole discretion of club staff.

• A maximum of one can of tennis balls may be used on each court when members or guests are playing on either of the adjoining courts. When practicing and using many balls, play should be moved to a more isolated court.

Conduct on the Court and at the Club

• Please use the gate nearest to the court that you will be playing on. Never walk behind another court while it is occupied, even if the players are between points.

• Tennis equipment should be placed where it will not impede play. Unsealed beverage containers are not allowed on the court (water bottles are OK).

• Dangerous or violent racquet or ball throwing, abusive language or behavior will not be tolerated. Correct behavior should be displayed at all times. Members whose behaviour is deemed inappropriate may be asked by management to leave the Club and may have their membership privileges suspended.
