Reviews
"It rained so I couldn't play but it looked great."
"I play socials at the club.. Its very good as they grade you and you can play with many different players around your level. Of late, it has become too crowded and the wait time between the sets is pretty high. I used to play 3-4 sets in 2 hours earlier and now I can manage only 2 sets due to the crowd. A few courts have their lights broken. If those can be fixed, may be the situation will improve."
"Love having a hit on these courts, they are well maintained and have a nice even bounce, the lighting is also good at night time. Only downside is if you want free parking, its about a 10 minute walk as it costs money to park on campus."
"The courts are great, new and well maintained. The group coaching has been fantastic, Marshall is a great coach and the environment is very welcoming for beginners like us! We have a great time in our classes and have improved very quickly. The pricing to hire a court is very expensive, so even though we love these courts, we have a lifetime tennis membership for $27 a month to use their courts for practice or social hitting instead. Group coaching is expensive here too, but I find it worth paying for as the coaches are great! The shop is very disorganised when it comes to organisation of group classes. When classes get rained out, it can take weeks to get a makeup class confirmed or a credit to your account (don't even think about a refund, it won't happen!). The general response when asking a question is that "the coaching manager will send out information shortly" - I'm not sure I've ever received information from the coaching manager, and if you don't keep following up nobody will contact you."
"They have increased court costs to help "pay for improvements". The other day we wanted to play but were told there were no courts. Strange because 8 courts were empty. When we pointed this out we were told by the staff that "they were locked". When asked why they said "We don't know - the manager told us to lock them." So we had to go across town to Morningside where we were welcomed. Seems a strange way of operating - to close some courts with no explanation, yet raise the price because they need more money. I think I could help them with that one. Great courts if you can get them unlocked."
