Max Player Per Session
• We cap the total number of players in a session based on number of courts available [4 players per court*no of courts available + one extra player per court accounting for players taking breaks, rotation etc,]. For 8 courts we allow a maximum of 40 players.
Ad-hoc Play
• Ad-hoc participation requires responding to a poll shared the day before play.
• Spots are allocated based on response order and availability
Example1: If max players for current session are 40, member poll shows 36 members will join, we will allow up-to 4 ad-hoc players to join hitting max cap of 40 players.
Example2: If max players for current session are 40, member poll shows 40 members will join, we do not allow any ad-hoc players as max cap for the session is already reached.
• Participants must receive confirmation and have a signed waiver.
• If responding for others, specify each participant clearly.
Ad-hoc Fees:
• Non-members: $20 USD per day
• Members (playing in the other group): $15 USD per day (Active membership for current month needed)

Ad-hoc Attendance/No-Show:
If you claim an ad-hoc spot and receive confirmation to join based on availability:
• Cancel no later than 2Hours before the game start time. Notify the organizers by text or in the group chat so the next person on the waitlist has a chance to play.
