with the monitor in attendance. The person registering must show a
tennis card or pass and give the monitor the names of all players
for the court reserved. Players having played on a reserved court
once during a given day may not play on a reserved basis again that

their registration. If a reservation is made and not kept, such players
will be denied reservation privileges for a period of seven (7) days.
After playing their hour, all players must vacate the court if others
