Competition Etiquette:

Do not return obvious faults as this disrupts the server.

Make sure the server has the balls at his/her end. When sending them back, do so under the net or softly over if net too long. Make sure the server is aware that a ball is coming.

     Never hit a ball, a racquet or fixture in anger. Do not insinuate that your opponent is a cheat, this strictly contravenes “rules of non-umpired matches”.

It is a player’s responsibility to call line calls at his/her end only, unless asked by their opponent. It is your responsibility to call against yourself if the ball is clearly out and you have been requested to assist with the call.

Do not question calls. Maintain a respectful attitude toward your opponent.

      Do not swear, threaten or abuse your opponent. Verbal abuse, physical abuse and audible obscenities contravene rules of weekly competition play.

Do not throw your racquet, this is a safety issue. Do not deliberately try to hit your opponent. Players are reminded that competitive play requires that idle chatter and noise be kept to a minimum.

Do not walk off the court before the set is over, without permission from opponent and only in cases of emergency.
