The three east courts are reserved from (usually) 5:30 until dark with 30 min rotations (20 minutes if crowded). (In late August and September, we start at 4:30.) You may play on courts 4-5 if there are no public players. However, if public players arrive, Club members must vacate these courts immediately. The Parkade courts are public courts maintained by the City; any issues with access or cleanliness or maintenance should be referred to the City via phone number 311 or online.

SPECIAL EVENTS
When special events are scheduled (for example at Stanley Park or Capilano or Granville Island), then the format will typically be to play for 30 minutes, then sit for 30, then play again with a different partner and opponents. This format enables us to book courts for 4 hours, with each player being on court for 30 minutes of each hour.
However with Winter Tennis we typically schedule only two hours and each person plays for the full two hours, changing partners every 30 minutes. Winter Tennis will be scheduled at indoor courts, if we can arrange rental. Sign up will be online through this website.
