new procedure for Guest booking 

  • Guests are always welcome at YWTC.
  • However, we're making some changes to the Guest Booking procedure.
  • All Guests will be required to submit a Guest Legal Waiver (Form).
  • Before a Guest can be booked, the Member should first:
                    1) Ensure the Guest completes & submits the Form.
                    2) Prepay the Guest fee.
  • The Member booking will no longer be required to type in Guest names on the Booking Form.
  • Instead, Guest names will appear in the Booking dropdown menu if: 
                1) The Form has been submitted     &
                     2) The $15. fee has been e-transferred prior to booking.
  • Guest bookings require meeting the above two conditions.
  • The Guest submits the Form once and does not need to resubmit it for future visits.
  • Cancellation & refunds:  Issued only if the booking is cancelled before the start of the hour.
  • No refunds for cancellations after the hour has started or for no-shows.
  • A Member may not invite the same Guest more than twice in the same calendar month.
  • Guests playing in ICTA events at YWTC are exempt from the Waiver requirement.​

Washrooms Closed

  • Water to the Clubhouse has been turned off for the winter.
  • Water service will be restored in April.​

Several members took the opportunity to renew their memberships for 2026, by tapping and paying on our new Interac  terminal.

We wrapped up the morning with a fun round-robin--thank you to all who helped get the club ready for the winter tennis season!

Court Booking TipS

    #1
  • No need to manually scroll through all the names in the Member Name dropdown.
  • Type the 1st letter of the Member Name to quickly jump to the section you're looking for.
  • Typing the 2nd letter does not get you closer to the target -- a limitation of Google Sheets.
   #2
  • Download and install the Google Sheets app for a smoother booking experience on your mobile.
  • Booking with your mobile's browser delivers sub-optimal performance.
  #3
  • Always close the tab in your browser after submitting the booking form.  Leaving the tab open can result in Invalid Booking error messages that are avoidable if you close the tab after booking.
  • Scroll further down this page for more detailed Court Booking instructions.
