Overview

 Terms used by CourtReserve:

 

Events and Court Reservations

Events: These are blocks of time allocated for members only play, although exceptions may be made to allow guests if spaces are open (they are the coloured blocks on the Events Calendar). Usage will determine the allocation of courts between Events and Reservations.

Reservations: These are open blocks of time that members or members with guests can book for their exclusive use. When you open “Book a Court” you will see the courts that are available with the word “Reserve”.


Shawnigan Lake Pickleball Club Reservation Policies

These policies relate to the button “Reserve” under the tab “Book a Court”.
 

• Each member may have one reservation per day to a maximum of 180 minutes per day.

• Each member may have three reservations per week to a maximum of 540 minutes per week

• Prime time reservations (from 9:00AM to 1:00PM every day) are limited to 120 minutes. These reservations are included in the maximum one reservation per day and three per week policy.

 

The booking window to reserve courts opens seven days in advance, for example:
Monday at 8am - all open times for the following Monday become accessible.
Tuesday at 8am - all open times for the following Tuesday become accessible etc..

Guests are allowed and must be listed on a court reservation. As per club policy, there is a guest fee of $5 per guest per visit. Up to four guests can be invited per month. Guests must sign a liability waiver.

There are three types of reservations that can be booked by members.

Singles - 2 players (members and/or a guest) must be listed on the court reservation.

Doubles - 4 players (members and/or guests) must be listed on the court reservation.

Family - This reservation type can be made by a single member without attaching 3 other members to the court reservation. This type can be used when playing with members of your immediate family who are not listed in the system (your spouse / children under 18 / grandchildren). This is only available for the "off-peak" hours of 12PM-8PM each day. There is no charge for spouses, children or grandchildren. SLPC members who make this type of reservation must be in attendance and supervise the family members throughout the duration of the reservation.

There are no gender restrictions of any kind on court reservations.

Although you can only book up to 7 days in advance, you can view the Courts Schedule up to 30 days in advance to see any events that may already be planned on the courts prior to the booking window opening.

Reservations should be canceled at least 12 hours prior to the reservation, if possible. The system will be tracking the number of cancellations made by each member within a 2 hour window before a reservation and a consistent pattern of cancellation will be addressed. It is only courteous to cancel your reservation and free up your court as early as possible if you will not be using it.

There are number of other restrictions that the system has in place that you are unlikely to run into; for the sake of brevity we will not delve into them here.
