It is the intent of Peachtree Corners Swim and Racquet Club (PCSR) to allow for the optimum use of the tennis courts for all club members in the fairest possible manner.  PCSR Tennis activities are intended to benefit our club members first and foremost and protect & invest in our club facilities.  Rules cannot be developed to cover every situation. Therefore, we ask everyone to use common courtesy and observe tennis etiquette. Please read the rules and employ them in the spirit of fair play and good sportsmanship.

GENERAL COURT RULES

1. Court hours are 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. daily.  Lights will turn off automatically at 11:00 p.m. Turn off lights when not in use. Please check to make sure no one is actively using the courts or no one else is waiting to use the courts before turning off the tennis lights. The lights will not come on for 20 minutes after being shut off.  Lock both gates and turn off all lights when leaving.   
2. The Tennis gate lock code is available when making a reservation online.  The Combination code should not be shared and is changed periodically.   
3. Proper tennis attire is required. No cut offs, swimsuits, or non-athletic wear is allowed. Shirts must always be worn. Only regulation tennis shoes are allowed on the courts. Jogging shoes, basketball shoes or shoes with heels are not allowed. Shoes other than regulation tennis shoes will destroy the surface of the courts and cannot be allowed.
4. Organized tennis activities must be approved by the Tennis Chair (PCSRTennis@gmail.com) in advance.  Organized tennis activities may involve more than one court at a time and/or multi day frequency and/or may involve exchange of money for tennis activity.  PCSR tennis teams, events, and tournaments have priority use of the tennis courts.  Please refer to the ALTA/USTA Team Tennis Section for more detail.
5. Courts and lights are for tennis usage only, and only persons playing tennis are permitting inside the court area. 
6. No glass containers will be allowed inside the courts.  Alcoholic beverages are allowed at the tennis courts for adults who are of legal drinking age.
7. Keep the court area clean and litter free.  Tennis ball cans and other debris should be placed in the trash receptacles.
8. No smoking is allowed on the tennis courts or outside the tennis court fence.
9. Courtesy to the players on adjacent courts is requested.  Do not chase balls in the adjoining court. Do not cross behind until invited to do so.  
10. Do not walk or stand behind the end of the courts while play is in progress.
11. Children (under 10) may not use the courts unless accompanied by an adult club member.  Players bringing children with them while they play tennis are responsible for properly supervising their children.  Noisy, unruly behavior is a disturbance to others and should be controlled.  
12. Members may bring guests to play with them on the 1 court they reserved.  All guests must be accompanied by a member at all times. Non-members that are playing on an ALTA/USTA team may only use the facility during practice/matches for that team during that session.
13. If desired, individual club players should blow off the courts as necessary before their own personal or flex league play.  
14. Know, enforce, and abide by all the tennis rules. Please report any violations to the Tennis Chair (PCSRTennis@gmail.com).  PCSR may revoke tennis privileges of those members who show continual disregard for these rules governing the use of the tennis courts.

RESERVATIONS

Tennis court reservations are made by club members through our website (Peachtree-Corners.org).  This service will allow you to check on court availability and make reservations from the internet through computer or smart phone. All court reservations will be handled through this system, so please follow the instructions below to begin.

1. Log into your account at peachtree-corners.org and book your court under Tennis Reservations.  Make sure to provide your first and last name.  Please provide information at the time of the booking as to the purpose of your tennis reservations to aid others who may play next to you on an adjacent court.  The online reservation must list all players names (club members or guests).
2. Reservations are limited to one 2-hour session per day, except for team tennis practices, matches or other PCSR approved tennis activities. Consecutive signups are not permitted.
3. Reservations not kept within 15 minutes are forfeited.
4. Cancellations should be made as soon as possible as a courtesy to others. No-shows may result in loss of future reservation privileges.
