Notes

CALL FIRST to get permission to play. Must register at the Racket/Fitness Center before playing. Cost $10. I have never had an issue playing here. Made to feel welcome in fact! They did say they like it when individuals want to play. Group play has different rates I believe. It was a little confusing.
