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, option 5 between 9 a.m. and closing, 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 ten students per class. Youth classes have a maximum of eight students. To avoid cancellation of a class, a class may “make” with less than six students, but with a reduced number of sessions. Classes at the same level and similar age groups may be combined at the discretion of High Point staff. 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.

10 & Under 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 rackets, 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!

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. For Adults, the sequence is Beginner, Advanced Beginner, Learn and Play, High Point intra-facility leagues, Tennis Competitor of Dallas leagues and USTA Adult Leagues.

REGISTRATION 101 SO YOU WANT TO SIGN UP FOR A COURSE?

Great! We offer several convenient ways for you to register including: Internet, in person and by telephone. INTERNET REGISTRATION “You’re first in line when you are on-line”

FASTEST Method

www.planoparks.org

Leisure Online

Actually, when registration begins each session, 750 people (or Internet connections) are allowed at one time. We found that if we allow more connections the Web pages load too slowly for even the most patient person. If you are not one of the first 750 connections you will get a message that reads “Leisure OnLine is currently busy due to high demand.” After the first 30 minutes of the start of registration the demand subsides allowing quick and easy access to the site. Residents may register on-line beginning at 8 am on March 2. Be sure to get an Individual ID and Family PIN by calling any of our centers. Please call prior to the first day of registration because heavy call volume on this first day makes it difficult to get through on the phone. You can also request this information by e-mail 24/7 in the “My Account” section of Leisure OnLine if the e-mail address matches the one on your account or e-mail customer care. Have your Individual ID, Family PIN, course numbers and credit card information ready when you log on. Once logged on, you can shop, pay and print your receipts from your own computer. www.planoparks.org *Non-resident registration begins at 5 am on March 4. Not all facilities open at 5am, facility operational hours are listed on page 82.

Parks and Recreation Planning Board

PLANO STAGES Plano Stages, a division of Plano Parks and Recreation, is committed to providing the community with opportunities to enjoy quality music, dance, theatre and cultural events at any of our three publicly owned and operated performance venues: the Courtyard Theater, the Amphitheater at Oak Point Park and the Cox Building Playhouse. The Courtyard Theater, recipient of the Greater Dallas Planning Council’s 2007 Urban Design award, was the first gymnasium built for the Plano School District. In 2001, the gymnasium was converted into the stellar, 325-capacity theater we know and love today. The Amphitheater at Oak Point Park, a beautiful, 1,200-capacity bowl-style venue, is tucked deep into the heart of Plano’s 800-acre Oak Point Park and Nature Preserve. The “Plano Amp,” as it is locally known, houses major concerts, cultural festivals and special events of all kinds. The Amp’s picturesque and open-air setting makes it an ideal location to enjoy an evening of entertainment. The Cox Building Playhouse, a 90-capacity black-box style space, is a versatile, state-of-the-art venue used by local performers and touring acts, special performances and meetings. Calendars for all three venues can be found at www.planostages.com. Each one of these handsome and well-maintained spaces is available for rent by the general public, non-profit organizations and corporate groups. For more information, please call 972-941-5611.
