- Q: What if a non-member joins an ALTA team, but never practices or plays in a match (e.g. due to injury or availability).
- A: Any non-member ALTA participants who uses the Echo courts (for either practice or a home match) on a single occasion or not at all will be exempted from paying the non-member fee for that season.
ETIQUETTE:
These aren’t strictly enforced, but please consider:
- Balls coming in from neighboring courts and interrupting play is an expected part of playing at a club. But, if you’ll be sending a significant number of wayward shots (e.g. playing with small children or using a ball machine), consider reserving court 4 and closing it off via the big mesh curtain.
- If a match is wrapping up soon on a court you’ve reserved and other courts are available, consider moving to the open court until the match is completed.
