Murraywood teams must be made up of at least 75% members.
Any team not able to meet the 75% rule may submit a written request for a waiver to the MSRC Tennis Committee prior to the season in question by completing and submitting the Request for Ratio or Fee Waiverform.
Non-members are required
to pay $50.00 per season per team to Murraywood before the first match for each
season he/she is on the team roster. The non-member fee is for team play only,
and does not include any practices at Murraywood. Non-members who practice with
a team must pay the $7 non-member fee for each practice session.
If a team cannot be made up of all members, i.e., non-members would be needed to reach a minimum number of players, and a fee reduction is desired, a written request can be made to the MSRC Tennis Committee prior to the season in question by completing and submitting the Request for Ratio or Fee Waiverform.
Before
the beginning of each season, the Club’s Tennis Committee Chairperson or
appointed representative will send a club-wide email advising all members of
the upcoming tennis season. While the
Tennis Committee cannot guarantee placement on a team, every effort will be
made to place all members on a team.
The Captain of each team will:
Email the Tennis Chair with the team roster, listing each player, their rating, and whether or not they are a club member.
Submit a check to the Tennis Chair for any non-member fees.
Court Reservation Guidelines
Courts are blocked
out as soon as the schedules are posted on TennisLink.
Captains should check that courts are
blocked out for scheduled matches at least 3 days prior to match date.
Court Assignments
Adult matches are assigned five courts: 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Senior matches (55+) receive two soft courts and one hard court.
Super Seniors (65+ and 75+) receive 3 clay courts.
If
courts are NOT blocked out for a scheduled match, please contact the Tennis
Committee.
Matches that have to be rescheduled due to
rain or weather below 32°F can make reservations prior to 48 hours if courts
are available. To have courts rescheduled prior to the 48-hour rule,
contact the Tennis Chair. A night that has a regularly scheduled league
match may NOT be used for a match make-up. Captains who pre-block rescheduled,
rainout or cold weather matches must indicate the team level, “adult”
or “senior” and captain’s name.
Captains CANNOT bump non-league players who have reserved courts following the Club 48-hour sign-up rule.
Matches that need to be rescheduled for any
reason other than rainout or cold
weather must follow the regular
48-hour sign-up procedures.
