The Surf & Turf Tennis Center Intermediate Clinic

If this is your first clinic you must first pay the new student registration fee found under programs. Thank you.

*If your child comes to the clinic and has not registered (and we can accept them), there will be a $10 additional fee.

Cancelation policy:

  • You can cancel up to 24 hours before the clinic for a club credit.
  • If your child is ill, and it is after the 24 hour cancellation period, please contact the office as soon as possible to let us know
  • On days where there is questionable weather in the forecast, we will keep you updated regarding clinic status. We do not accept cancellations in anticipation of rain
  • Additionally, if there is rain in the forecast AND your child is also ill, we will provide a credit as long as we are informed at least four hours before the start of the clinic.

Effective March 19, 2024, we will be offering one rain make up day per season/per clinic .

Fall: August 15-December 26

Winter: December 26-February 28/29

Spring: March 1-May 31

The rain make up day will be emailed to you by the end of the season. This will take the place of any credit or refund for a cancelled clinic (either partial or full) due to rain.

*If your child cannot attend the rain makeup for that season, they can attend any other in that calendar year when we announce the date. We will not be making any changes, additions, substitutions or adjustments.
