NOTE: Only those eligible members who have completed their Applications and fully paid their Association fees will be permitted to use the tennis courts. (Families who rent homes in Seaview must be sure that the homeowner has paid their Association fees in order to be eligible for tennis membership.)
The Tennis Committee has added exciting new programs for children, teens, and adults during weekdays. The Combined Adult Membership Program - - weekday-weekend play - - will be in
effect this season for those members fortunate enough to spend most of their summer n Seaview.
Weekend games will be scheduled for seasonal play starting in June, with open time reserved for
those Members not scheduled for weekend games (see Membership Categories sheet for
the details).
The Revised Rules set out who is eligible to play on the Seaview tennis courts. Please read the Rules carefully.
In order to have an orderly and equitable assignment of court time, it is important that the Tennis
Committee receive all scheduling requests as soon as possible. Assigned times for play will be
posted by June 28, 2012. Prior to June 28, 2012, last year's assigned court times will be in effect
for the weekends and weekdays for eligible tennis members.
If you are new to Seaview ,or to tennis, and do not have a game, we suggest you take an
"Unscheduled Membership"( #8), and consider registering for participation in a tennis clinic
given by the pros or a private lesson with one of our pros. If you later decide that you would like
to be in a scheduled game, you can speak to the HeadPro about getting you into a group on your
level of play. See the Head Pro if you have any questions
Until May 24,2012, please send the completed Application form for each household and the Scheduling form for each player, along with your check, made out to SEAVIEW TENNIS,
and mail the check to:
