  • Junior Walk On Pass: This is the secret weapon of everyone one of our highest ranked players. Every one of our best players has a junior walk-on pass and uses it. Our junior walk-on policy allows juniors who are members and currently enrolled in a clinic (or a regularly scheduled weekly private lesson) to play for FREE any day of the week. Below are the guidelines…
    • Courts may be booked any day or time that the club is open.
    • Players may book the court no earlier than 24 hours before the time they want to play.
    • If any player on the court is using the walk-on pass, then all players must abide by the 24-hour rule before the court is booked or they will be charged the normal court rate.
    • Time Limit: Players may book no more than 2 hours per day using the junior walk-on pass even if they are playing with different players. Note: During our peak season (Jan-Mar) players can book no more than 1.5 hours per day of junior walk-on time.
    • When booking the court, players must tell the desk staff that the court is a junior walk-on court.
    • All players must check in at the front desk when they arrive to play. 
    • Only the player who is enrolled in the class receives his/her portion of the court time for free.
  • Parents & Kids Play for FREE: Again this year we will allow parents of the players in our junior program to play for free with their kids at no charge. Here is how it works.
    • The child has to be a member of the Dewitt Tennis Center ($160 per year) and be enrolled in either a clinic or taking a regularly scheduled weekly private lesson.
    • The above will ensure that each player has a walk-on pass, which allows them to play for FREE if they book the court no earlier than 24 hours ahead of time.
    • The parent does not have to be a member of the club nor do they have to pay court time! – Their child’s walk-on pass will suffice.
    • Anytime a player and parent want to hit together, they must book the court using the walk-on guidelines (24-hour limit)
    • The parent can only hit with their child and not any other kids.

If you have questions, please call our front desk at 616-395-6060.
