ADULT TENNIS LEAGUES

Men’s Singles Ladder Players joining ladder should be able to play at 3.5 (NTRP) and above level. Challenge Ladder Rules The initial ranking of players on a ladder is random. New players are added to the bottom of the ladder. The challenger must contact the player challenged. The challenged player may select the time and location of the match; however, the time and location should be mutually agreeable to both players. The challenger is responsible for providing new tennis balls and reserving the court according to RA Tennis Court Rules. The standard rules of the USTA apply to ladder matches. The usual method of scoring is based on winning two of three sets with a tiebreak at the

end of any set that reaches a score of six games each. In the tiebreak, the first to win seven points wins the set, but must win by at least two points. The winner of the match is responsible for recording the results online at tennisengine.com within 24 hours of the match. The ladder listing is updated each time a new challenge match score has been entered. The rules will be interpreted and disputes between members will be settled at the sole discretion of the ladder coordinator. Upon completion of registering, you will receive a password to the online ladder. Please register online through WebTrac. For more information contact Rob Tucker at 703-435-6502.

DROP-IN TENNIS

Tue 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm Lake Newport Tennis Courts: 1,2,5,6 *Drop-in tennis is for Reston Association Members and tennis members only. Non-members must purchase an RA tennis membership to participate. How it works: You must have your RA pass with you to participate. Bring a can of balls and your game. Doubles will be the format when people are waiting to play. Teams will play best of five games using NOAD scoring. The winning team will stay on the same court but will split and no longer be partners. Losing team will slide to the next court down where a winning team will have split and will accept one player each. If the court next to you has not finished, you are asked to wait outside the court or on a bench. This format will continue until nobody is waiting to play. Once people are waiting to play, you are asked to go back to the five game NO-AD matches. Courts one and two should be used by players 3.5 and below when no line is present. Courts five and six should be used for 3.5 and above when no line is present. If court three has no lessons at 9 p.m., it will be reserved for drop-in tennis.

Our mission is to enhance Reston Association’s services and programs by matching the varied talents of individuals and groups of all ages, interests, and skills to a variety of engaging projects and endeavors.

Why Volunteer: Volunteers play a critical role in helping Reston grow. Whether you are hoping to meet new neighbors, spend time with friends, learn new skills, make a positive impact in your community, or complete school service hours, Volunteer Reston has something for everyone. Regardless of the motive, Reston Association volunteers all have one thing in common — they are all helping to make Reston a better place to live, work, play, and Get Involved. Reston Association volunteers have a variety of ages, skill levels, and personalities. Volunteers include senior citizens, corporate teams, faith-based groups, families, college students, retirees, scouts, and youth. VR has many different volunteer types: yearround, seasonal, students, environmental, corporate, groups, and special events. There are several ways to get involved. Some events happen frequently, whereas others happen on an annual or even one-time basis. Our recreational, environmental, and administrative projects enable volunteers to meet other

locals and learn more about Reston’s growing community.

Make a Positive Environmental Impact: Reston is often praised for its trails, lakes, and landscape. To preserve Reston’s natural beauty, regular maintenance is essential. Consider supporting habitat restoration, watershed cleanups, and other workday projects by signing up for an upcoming opportunity. Opportunities include Habitat Heroes, stream monitoring, watershed cleanups, Earth Day, Arbor Day, Walker Nature Center events, and other workdays.

Serve on RA Boards & Committees : The Reston Association’s boards and committees are where you can really immerse yourself in a cause or area that suits you. The Board of Directors is comprised of nine members, and elections to the Board are held annually. All members – homeowners and tenants – are encouraged to participate in the annual elections. Watch the RA’s website each winter for Calls for Candidates and each spring for information about the annual election. Like the Elections Committee and the Covenants Committee, the Design Review Board (DRB) is mandated by Reston’s Deed. The DRB is responsible for reviewing exterior alterations and improvements of properties. Application to join the DRB can be found at www. reston.org. Advisory Committees are comprised of RA members who provide advice on Association matters and perform such duties as may be requested by the Board of Directors. Each advisory committee meets

aspects of your company’s community service volunteer project.

NEED SERVICE HOURS FOR SCHOOL? Many students in Reston and the surrounding area are required to perform a specific number of community service hours for their course or school requirements. Volunteer Reston is a great way to fulfill these hours. Students may be able to finish their service hours by handling shifts at community events, environmental projects, monthly service projects, and community cleanups. This also includes scouting organizations that need to complete a community service project. For upcoming volunteer opportunities or more information about Volunteer Reston, please contact Ha Brock, Volunteer Reston Manager, via email ha@reston.org or 703-435-7986.

Storm Drain Marking Project What can you do to protect our local streams, lakes and the Chesapeake Bay? One way is to participate in the Storm Drain Marking Project. Our storm drains prevent flooding of roads and neighborhoods by carrying rain and snowmelt away from streets and sidewalks. Unlike water from our taps and tubs, water flowing into our storm drains is not treated. Storm drains connect directly to our streams and empty into our lakes. Trash, pet waste, motor oil, paint and other materials dumped or washed into storm drains pollute our watersheds and, ultimately, the Chesapeake Bay. Markers on each storm drain remind all of us to keep storm drains and our streams clean.

volunteers are needed to mark the storm drains and to help educate the community about the connection between the storm drains and our streams and lakes. We are looking for volunteers to utilize Reston’s ArcGIS mapping software to update storm drain marker locations. This is a great way to complete community service hours for students. Many storm drains in Reston are on private roads. In order for volunteers to mark the drains, clusters need to grant permission first. Contact your local cluster board member and get your neighborhood involved today. The Storm Drain Marking Project in Reston is sponsored by the Fairfax County Department of Public Works and Environmental Services, the Northern VA Soil and Water Conservation District, the Virginia Department of Transportation-Northern VA District and Reston Association. To get your project started or for more information, contact Ben Rhoades, Watershed Specialist, at 703-435-6560, brhoades@reston.org

Since there are over 4,000 storm drains in Reston, many WWW.RESTON.ORG
