Lessons, leagues and tournaments are offered on a regular basis for those wanting organized activities. For players not wanting a structured activity, many courts are open for reservations.

Registration Tennis registration may be completed by using internet, in-person or by telephone starting Saturday, March 5. Please see “How to Register” information for detailed instructions.

Hours of Operation Monday thru Sunday -- *7:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. *Tennis Center opens at 9 a.m. from October 1 thru March 31. The tennis center may close early due to inclement weather and/ or lack of court demand.

Reservations Court reservations may be made in person or by telephone at (972) 941-7170 between 9 a.m. and 10:30 p.m., Monday through Sunday. A person may have only one reservation at a time (you must finish your first reservation before a second reservation can be made).

Instruction

Teen-Adult classes have a minimum of six students and a maximum of eight students per class. Youth classes have a maximum of eight students. Any group of two or more players may schedule a special class by contacting High Point staff at (972) 941-7170. Group lessons are very popular and some classes fill very quickly. To assure a continuous chain of instruction, it is recommended that students enroll for multiple sessions at the time of initial registration. For example, a student should enroll for a Beginner session in the first session, an Advanced Beginner I group in the second session and an Advanced Beginner II group in the third session.

QuickStart Tennis High Point participates year round in the QuickStart Tennis play format, a national program designed to help children learn, rally, and play quickly. Using shorter and lighter racquets, balls that are easy to keep in play, and court dimensions tailored to smaller players, youngsters from ages 5-10 pick up the game very quickly. In short time, young players are able to keep the ball in play and play points just like older and more experienced players. In time, as students’ games improve and as they mature physically, they move to traditional rackets, balls and courts. QuickStart is a great way to introduce children to the great game of tennis!

Court Fees

RESIDENTS

Youth (l7 & under) -- $2.00 per person per session Adult (l8 & up) -- $2.50 per person per session

Advancement from Course to Course Players are encouraged to continue learning and playing through progressively more challenging courses. The goal is to have students playing tennis (in some form) as soon as possible. As a player improves, more course time is spent on point-play like situations. For children, the instructional/play sequence is: Beginner or Pee Wee I lessons (depending on age of child), Advanced Beginner or Pee Wee II lessons, and Future Stars or Pre Junior Development (Play and Instructional Programs), Competitive and Elite Junior Development. For Teens, the sequence is Beginner, Advanced Beginner I, Advanced Beginner II, Learn N Play, Future Stars, Competitive and Elite Junior Development.

WAITING LISTS

If a course is full you may ask to have your name placed on the waiting list for that course at no cost. The computer system maintains the waiting list in the order persons are placed there. When cancellation by a participant in the course occurs, the computer notifies staff members of an opening and of the first person named on the list. Staff will notify, in waiting list order, the persons on the list and offer the opportunity to register for the course at that time. Payment for the course will be required at the time of registration. If you are contacted from a wait list and enrolled for that course, you will be removed from any wait lists for similar courses.

REFUNDS

Full refunds will be granted* when requested more than one week prior to the start date of the course/program. Refunds requested less than one week prior to the start date of the course/program will not be granted unless the vacated spot is filled. If the spot is filled, a refund will be granted, less a $5 administrative fee.

Medical refunds requested prior to the start date of the course/program will be granted in full. A doctor’s note must be provided for all medical refunds to be processed. A prorated refund will be granted for medical refund requests received during or after the course/program. Medical refunds must be requested, with proper documentation, within a month of the program’s ending date. Courses canceled by the Parks and Recreation Department due to low enrollment or other circumstances will result in one of the following: 1) the participant may register for another available course, or 2) the participant may have his/her money kept on account to use at a later date, or 3) the participant may request a full refund. To request a refund, please call the recreation facility where the course/ program is offered. Participants paying by credit card will have the refund amount credited to that credit card account. Due to unforeseen circumstances, printed prices are subject to change without notice. *Refunds cannot be granted for non-recoverable costs on some programs and trips, such as hotel costs and pre-paid admission fees unless the spot is filled. Also, on trips where services are contracted to outside travel agencies, the travel agency refund and cancellation policies will apply.

INCLUSION POLICY

Inclusion in many of our programs is possible for those with special needs. It is important that you contact Therapeutic Recreation at (972) 941-7272, prior to registration, for details on how we can support your abilities, interests and desire to participate. To ensure the safety and enjoyment of others in recreation programs, participants are expected to display appropriate behaviors. The success of all recreation activities depends not only on good planning and instruction, but the conduct of participants. Appropriate behavior includes the ability to follow instructions and interact with other individuals. Parks and Recreation staff will discuss behaviors of concern with the participant and his/her family when necessary.

Has your phone number changed? Your e-mail? Our primary means of communication with you about class changes or cancellations is by phone or e-mail. If these have changed, please update your information by calling or visiting any recreation facility. For your convenience we can also add your cell and/or work number to your account. Also, in the event that you forget your Individual ID and Family PIN while registering for a class, keeping your e-mail address current will ensure that you can receive this information by e-mail in a timely manner to continue with the registration.
