PERMANENT COURT TIME
Starting 2023 Courts Plus will no longer be offering permanent courts. We have been busier than ever, and we have members joining all year round. We don’t feel it’s fair to only service a few people who then have guaranteed courts. Those courts are then locked up so that no-one else can book them for those time periods. We will be honoring all existing permanent courts through May, 2023.
If you’re unable to login, or use the app, please call the front desk to reserve a court.
