OTHER
When players are waiting for courts, unreserved play is limited to one hour for singles, and one and one half hour for doubles. Waiting players are permitted to ask players who have occupied the courts beyond these times, to relinquish the courts. Pets are not allowed on the courts, and children only if accompanied by an adult. Trash must be placed in the appropriate receptacles. Only non-alcoholic beverages, and non-breakable containers are allowed within the fenced area of the courts. Smoking is prohibited on the grounds of the tennis courts. The Tennis Director has the authority to ask anyone to leave the courts for infraction of any of these rules and regulations, and will also monitor compliance with the “Un-Written Rules of Tennis”, otherwise known as “Tennis Etiquette”.
Tennis Etiquette
Court etiquette is not explicitly spelled out in the rules, but it should be familiar territory to a tennis player who wants to be known as sportsmanlike and mannerly. Are you obeying these rules?
- The oldest tradition in tennis is to give your opponent the benefit of the doubt. This means that ball that can not be called out with surety is presumed to be good and continues in play.
- No point should be replayed because a player is not sure if a ball was in or out.
- It is both, the obligation and prerogative of a player to call all balls in his court, to help his opponent make calls when the opponent requests it, and to call against himself(with the exception of his partner’s first service), any ball that he sees clearly out on his opponents side of the court.
- Returning a service that is obviously out (accompanied by an out call) is a form of rudeness and when the receiver knows that in making these returns he bothers the server, it is gamesmanship.
- Compliance with the foot fault rule is very much a function of a player’s personal honor system.
- When play is in progress do not go behind another court to retrieve a ball or hit a lose ball to that court. Do not ask for one of your balls until the point in play on the adjoining court has stopped. In returning a lose ball to another court, do not hit it aimlessly, as if you do not care where it goes as long as it leaves your court. Instead, pick up the ball and hit it gently so that it goes directly to one of the players on the court, preferably the server, or gently roll it to the back fence if no one is looking for it.
- Enter and exit between points. Wait until the point in progress is over before entering or leaving through another court. It is not only courteous, but safer for every one.
- Retrieve stray balls during breaks. If you know your tennis etiquette, you know that the only time you should go into the next court to retrieve a ball is when the point is over. Better yet, politely ask for those players to return your ball, but ask only during a break in play. On the other hand, it is common courtesy to make sure stray balls are returned to the proper courts promptly.
- Keep your voice down. Yes, tennis is a social game and you should have fun. But, there is a time for social chit-chat, and it is not on the tennis court. The noise might not be disrupting your group, but, there are other people to consider. If you must talk, keep it to a minimum, and keep the decibel level down. If you have a problem, meet your opponent at the net. Don’t discuss it by yelling from baseline to baseline.
- Always announce the score. It makes life a whole lot easier if the server announces the score before each serve. That way there won’t be any arguments over the score. The same holds true for line calls. Call the ball loudly and clearly.
- Ease up on practice returns. When your opponent is taking practice serves don’t smack the ball back with your hardest returns. Instead, catch a few serves so your opponent can concentrate on his delivery. He won’t have much practice if he has to duck your returns. How do you practice your return?…Simple. After your opponent has hit a few serves, simply announce “I am going to return these”. At least that way, he will be ready for them.
- Learn and play by the rules. It is common courtesy and a written rule to know the rules of the game and to play by them. A knowledgeable, mannerly, courteous player is the best representative of the game, the way it was intended to be played. So, make it a point to play by the rules. The written ones and the unwritten ones!
