Sunnyhills Tennis Club has a long held reputation of great sportsmanship and we have put together the following Standards for Juniors to adhere to as representatives of the Club.

We expect our players to:

• Treat their opponents with respect

• Play fairly

• Call lines and scores clearly

• Retrieve balls for their partner and opposition and return them courteously

• Compliment their opponents on good play

We do not condone:

• Using bad language

• Losing your temper

• Throwing racquets or balls in anger

• Showboating

Parents: We love to see you support your child and the club by attending matches and we also remind you to applaud good play and winning shots by both teams, keep outside the court area (behind fences and off the court surface), accept the decisions of officials and line calls of players. Please don’t communicate with players verbally or by signal during a match (including end changes) or call the lines from outside the court – the players call their own lines.

We are a very proud club and we want to maintain our high standards of sportsmanship. Our players are all part of a team and we want them to enjoy their tennis, be proud of their efforts and those of their team mates, and support each other while playing this sport that we all love.

Your Sunnyhills Tennis Club Committee
