 How We Play: The Rules of the Court

To keep the games moving and the vibes high, we follow a specific rotation flow. We have 4 courts available, and they are shared by everyone registered for the session.

• Self-Managed Play: Please note that there is no court moderator on-site. Players are responsible for self-sorting, managing the rotation fairly, and keeping the games flowing.
• The "11 and Out" Rule: Games are played to 11 points. To keep wait times short, you do not need to win by 2. Once a game hits 11, players rotate off the court to allow the next group in.
• Power in Numbers: Our goal is to keep foursomes on all courts at all times. If you arrive with a group of fewer than four, or if your group splits up, expect to mix, mingle, and play with other awesome participants! 
• Paddle Rotation: We use a standard paddle rotation system to track who is up next.

⚠️ Important Details

• Pre-registration and Pre-payment are required. We do not prorate for missed sessions.
• No Walk-Ins: Once online registration for a session is full, it closes. To keep the courts playable and prevent overcrowding, we cannot accept additional players.
• Waiver: All guests must sign a waiver before hitting the court.
• Gym Access: The gym opens promptly at the posted times.
