Players may register in advance in the pro shop. Sign ups after each Tuesday (48 hours prior to the date) will be accepted on a space available basis.

If it is your first time playing in the quadrant the pro's will place you in what they feel is the appropriate position utilizing NTRP and prior experience as guidelines.

Any group with a minimum of 8 players participating in 4 or more hours of camp instruction qualifies the captain/organizer for a free instructional camp! Please contact Mike Kiser, Head Tennis Professional, for details on this new program.

MEMBERSHIP PROMOTION

The promotion for members to upgrade their membership at reduced rates will end on

February 28, 2011.



Community member can upgrade to Social for $4,000 (normally $8,000)

Community to Full for $12,000 (an $18,000 upgrade)

Social/Sports member can upgrade to Full for $4,000 (a $10,000 upgrade)



There are many advantages that go along with the Social and Full memberships including discounted golf and free tennis.



In addition, if you assume the Club amenity access fees for rental guests (an estimated 16 weeks per year), the annual Club fees are less expensive at the Social level due to the fact that the Club amenity access fee is waived... not to mention the added benefits of being the 25 rounds of golf at cart fee only which can be shared with friends and family (this privilege applies to the Social level only).



This is your last chance! Please contact Lisa Miller at 843.768.7805 or via e-mail at lmiller@discoverseabrook.com to learn more about the changes and advantages of upgrading your membership today!
