The New Onion Creek Clay Courts!


Good morning!  We are pleased to announce the wait is almost over!  The newly resurfaced clay courts will be completed and ready to play on Friday May 24th!  Please remember to call and make your reservations in early, the courts may be reserved up to 14 days in advance. 


Just a few reminders to ensure our new courts stay as pristine as possible for all of our members to enjoy.  When you complete play, please brush the court and sweep the lines.  This is not just a courtesy to the next group playing, but also ensures the court playable stays consistent.  The courts will be closed daily from 12:00 pm- 2:00 pm for watering and maintenance.  If you would like to play on the clay courts during those times, please make a reservation in advance, and  we will adjust our watering schedule.  The courts will also be water daily in the evenings at 12:00 am.      

 
Thank you for your patience and we look forward to seeing you on our new clay courts soon!

Clay Court Update


Dear Members,

 

I am pleased to share an updated timeline for the resurface of our clay tennis courts.  Australian Courtworks is currently working on a hard court resurface at another facility in Austin, which has unfortunately been slightly delayed due to the recent inclement weather.  Once this project is completed, which we expect to take roughly 14 days, 80 tons of clay will be delivered and the repairs will start on our courts.  In the meantime we have started work on the irrigation system, and will begin preparing the site for the resurfacing.  The total project time once started will be   2-3 weeks, and based on this we have set a target date of June 1st to reopen the courts.  In addition to the obvious improvement on the playing surface, our upgraded courts will include new lines, nets, and net posts.

 

We appreciate everyone's patience and understand that the clay tennis courts offer a valuable amenity to many of our Members.  We look forward to providing each of you with a significantly upgraded experience very soon.
