TERMS AND CONDITIONS
We welcome you to our tennis program which runs for the 4 school terms. Club based programs will always run on public holidays (Easter the only exception). Each school term covers different aspects of Hot Shots Tennis.
RESERVED SPOT: As a student of STA, you are automatically enrolled for each school term. If you wish to withdraw from the program or switch times or days, we need 14 days’ notice. You will be invoiced in week 8 for the following term. We plan our coaches, courts and players well in advance so once the term has started your spot is reserved and invoice outstanding.
GET YOUR FREE T-SHIRT: As part of being a young Hot Shots tennis player, you get a free tshirt through Tennis Australia. Click here and select Scarborough Tennis Club. Your tshirt will be delivered to us to then hand to you.
CANCELLATION POLICY: If STA has to cancel any lessons due to rain or heat you will receive a text message 30min prior to the class start time. Some classes will go ahead in the rain if it is light enough to be deemed safe.
If the temperature is 37 degrees or higher, lessons will be cancelled (a thermometer will be placed at the club). Please note that rain and heat can vary from area to area. If you don’t receive a message, the lessons will run as normal.
HEAT POLICY: Where lessons go ahead for anything under 37 degrees, coaches are instructed to lower the intensity of the sessions and double the drink/shade breaks for lessons between 30-36 degrees. More more information see letter here.
MAKE UP LESSON: If a lesson is cancelled due to the weather, a make-up class will be held on Sunday mornings. In the case that you cannot attend one of your make up sessions, 2 master make up sessions will be held on either Saturday or Sunday mornings during school holidays.
Please note that no credits are available, and your make up options are:
· A) Weather cancellation make up session (Sunday morning)
