Tennis & Pickleball Info

January 04 2022

We have a vibrant tennis and pickleball community here in Green Trails. Learn more and join us!

PICKLEBALL

Two Pickleball courts have been overlaid onto the Park Cypress tennis court and in a feasibility study, portable Pickleball nets are provided for common use. There are instructions on the nets for moving and storing the nets.

Since Pickleball and Tennis are being played on the same court area, players must reserve courts through the Green Trails Court Reservation System, Reservemycourt.com. The pickleball courts are labelled “PC Pickleball N” and “PC Pickleball S.” Instructions for creating an account on ReserveMyCourt are discussed in the “Court Reservation System” section below.

Anyone interested in pickleball should text Sue Ratterree at 832-277-8387.

COURT RESERVATION SYSTEM

In December 2020, we initiated a new online court reservation system. To reserve a court, a resident should go to login. ReserveMyCourt.com and sign up as a new user by clicking on “Create an Account.” Enter your address under the “Address” dropdown menu. Under the dropdown menu “My Clubs” click on “New Club Connection” and select “Green Trails Ph 2 HOA” from the selections. There is no need to enter anything in “My Wallet” since there are no additional charges for using our courts. If you have any problems, please text Greg Kubala, 281-507-6343 or Jim Haylett, 281-395-3552.

After signing up as a new user, you can reserve a court on this website. Click on “Club Schedule” under “GT HOA” in the left column. The courts are designated GA for Gerri Ayres and PC for Park Cypress. Click on the date above the schedule to select the date you would like to reserve a court. Click in the time you want the reservation and complete the details in the popup menus.

Residents may reserve a court no sooner than 48 hours in advance for a 1 1/2-hour time-period. If a court is reserved and no one shows up to use the court, you are free to play on that court until the individual with the reservation shows up. These rules are posted on the website and the bulletin boards and are designed to allow maximum court usage for all residents.

ReserveMyCourt.com also has apps on iPhone and Android phones.

For safety reasons, tennis activities using a basket of balls are not permitted during prime time on the Gerri Ayres courts. Multiple balls lying on the courts is a safety hazard for others using the courts. Prime hours are every day, 8-10:30 AM and 6-9 PM. The court on Park Cypress is a single court on which multiple balls lying on the ground is not a hazard to others. If you want to use a basket of balls, reserve the court on Park Cypress.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH AND ADHERE TO THE POSTED GREEN TRAILS TENNIS COURT POLICIES CAN RESULT IN DEACTIVATION OF YOUR CARD KEY FOR ONE MONTH.

Anyone, including tennis pros, wanting to reserve REGULAR court time or to reserve the courts for a SPECIAL event in advance, must contact the tennis committee for approval through Greg Kubala or Jim Haylett at the phone numbers listed above.

LEAGUE TENNIS

Ladies HLTA and WHLTA tennis leagues are approved to play on Mondays and Wednesdays in the Fall and Spring from 8:30 AM-1 PM. Currently there is a Champ 2 West team playing on Monday and a A-3 team playing on Wednesday. The League Regulations are posted on the Crest Management Green Trails website under “Meeting and Forms,” “Public Forms.” If you are interested in playing ladies league tennis contact Brigitte Hobbesland, 713-591-0880.

ACCESS CARDS

New residents needing tennis/pool access cards can contact Crest Management at 281-579-0761. Access cards are for residents only. Please do not open the gates for anyone not having a card. Do not loan out your card.

VANDALISM

Your yearly maintenance fees directly pay for vandalism on the courts. Our goal is to keep these costs down while maintaining the nice amenities in our neighborhood for all residents. Please let your children know if they are observed abusing our courts and/or their equipment, the Constable will be called to escort them home. Anyone can report vandalism directly to the Constable at 281-463-6666, in the effort to keep our neighborhood’s common areas in good condition.
