All club policies are subject to change. Reasonable effort will be made to provide adequate notice to members when policies or rule changes are adopted.

These policies are not intended to regulate every occurrence at PRO Sports Club. Club management reserves the right to take any action necessary to protect the Club and ensure the safety and enjoyment of Club members.

Single members who become legally married or a registered domestic partner may add their spouse or partner to form a family membership by applying for a family add-on, paying the appropriate initiation fee, and presenting a legal marriage certificate, recognized by the State of Washington. The initiation fee shall be the published fee for the spouse add-on at the time the add-on occurs. If membership privileges are downgraded at any time, a new initiation fee is payable if the member(s) wish(es) to resume prior membership privileges at a later date.

Dissolution - In the event of a dissolution of the marriage or domestic partnership of Club members, two spouses or domestic partners who have had a family membership may continue as members. However, each person is required to pay the monthly dues of a single member. Written releases of interest in the existing family membership will be required.

Families are encouraged to use the club together. Children may be in the Club when properly supervised by a parent or baby-sitter, or properly using permitted facilities. Some facilities such as the Fitness & Free Weight Centers, whirlpools, and swimming pools have safety rules which restrict use by age and/or time of day. These rules are posted. The following rules also apply.

1. Ages 0-8: May be at the club without a parent if participating in childcare or another supervised club program. The parent is responsible for escorting the child to and from the program instructor. Otherwise, children of these ages must be supervised at arm's length by a parent.

To assist our parents in complying with this policy we have identified the following procedures regarding the dropping off and picking up of children. Since children of this age are required to be with the parent, the expectation is that the parent will escort the child to the location of the class and will pick the child up from this location as well.

In the event that the parent is not present when the class ends, the instructor will ask the child to remain in the classroom or instruction area until an adult arrives to pick up the child. The instructor will attempt to monitor the child, but this may not be possible due to the start of another class, unless alternate supervisory procedures for a specific class are published in writing, instructors and PRO Sports Club do not assume responsibility for children who are not picked up from lessons or classes at the end of a class. If staff members are present, as a courtesy, they will attempt to implement the following procedures:

Pavilion Activities

(At start of class parents will deliver the child to the instructor’s location in the Pavilion.) Upon completion of class the children should be picked up at this location or in front of the Pavilion Activities office. Should the parent be late the child will wait in the Activities Office. If possible an attempt will be made to locate the parent before taking the child to Discovery Bay.

Aquatics

(At start of class parents will deliver the child to the instructor’s location in the aquatics center) Upon completion of class the child will be picked up at this same location. Should the parent be late the child will be asked to wait in the Aquatics office. If possible an attempt will be made to locate the parent before taking them to Discovery Bay.

Group Fitness Classes

(At start of class, parents will deliver the child to the instructor’s location) Upon completion of class the child will be picked in the same location. If the parent is late the instructor will ask the child to wait at the back of the class. If the instructor does not have an additional class the child may be taken to the Group Fitness Office or Discovery Bay where attempts will be made to contact the parent.

Squash and Racquetball

(At the start of class, parents will deliver the child to the instructor’s court) Upon completion of class the child will be picked up in the same location. If the parent is late, the instructor will ask the child to wait on the bench immediately outside the court. If the instructor does not have an additional class the child may be taken to Discovery Bay.

Tennis

(At the start of class, parents will deliver the child either to the tennis court waiting area and wait to observe the child’s arrival on the proper court) At the end of class, the parent should arrive in the tennis waiting area early enough to observe their child departing the court and should meet their child in the tennis waiting area. If the parent is late, and a tennis pro or staff member is available, the child may be taken to Discovery Bay.

1. Ages 9-18: Junior members may be at the Club by themselves. See Fitness & Free Weight Centers and Aquatics sections for certification requirements.
2. Children who use the Club facilities must have their own membership or be part of a family membership. The only exceptions are for child care (Discovery Bay) and approved lesson programs. The guest policy applies to all other children.
3. The changing of diapers is restricted to the diaper changing stations.

An athletic guest using the Club a second time in the same calendar month will be charged a double guest fee or may not be permitted access.

If you find a lost item, please bring it to the Front Desk Concierge. If you lose something, stop by the Front Desk Concierge to see if it has been turned in.

• Valuable items are held in safekeeping for 30 days.
• Moderately valuable items, such as racquets and shoes, are stored for two weeks.

2. When a telephone caller requests a member’s phone number or email, we will provide the information if the club staff can verify the identity of the caller (by voice recognition or other identification method) and also verify that the information will be used for Club business or program purposes.

Printed Messages

PRO Sports Club strives to maintain a healthy, pleasant, non-intimidating and family-friendly environment for all members.

Therefore, PRO Sports Club restricts its members and their guests, while using a PRO Sports Club facility, from wearing any garment or displaying personal property that is inscribed, printed, or bearing patches with slogans, words, pictures, symbols or print, that may be interpreted to be profane, vulgar, supremacist, racist, sexually explicit, obscene, supportive of or oriented towards the glamorization of alcohol, tobacco or any illegal activity, derogatory towards any political party or candidate, ethnic, or religious group, or otherwise offensive in a manner that may reasonably be expected to incite hostility.

The determination as to whether a garment violates this policy is within the sole discretion of PRO Sports Club management, and PRO Sports Club staff will enforce this policy.

If a member or a member's guest fails to comply with this policy, PRO Sports Club employee(s) or management may ask that member or guest to change into clothing complying with this policy or refrain from displaying other non-compliant personal property. Any member or guest failing and/or refusing to comply with this policy will be asked to leave the premises and their club membership may be terminated.

Tennis Court Reservations:

1. Reservations for tennis are accepted by telephone, on-line or in person up to three days in advance. (For example, on Sunday, reservations may be made for Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.)
2. Two names are required to hold a court reservation. The names must be those who intend to use the court and at least two players must be using a court to maintain use of the court. The exception to this would be a single person reservation (45 minutes) for the Ball Machine on Tennis Court #6.
3. Single memberships may have one advance reservation on the books. Family memberships may have two people with advance reservations on the books. (For example, if a husband and wife are playing together on an advanced reservation, the limit is attained.)
4. 'Advanced reservations' refer to courts booked two or three days in advance. Courts that are booked the day prior to play do not count against the reservation limit.
5. The reservation limit applies separately to tennis, squash and racquetball. (For example, a single membership which includes both tennis and racquetball, may have one tennis and one racquetball reservation.)
6. For tennis, telephone, or in person reservations for 3 days in advance are accepted at 8:00 am. On-line bookings can be made beginning at 8:15am.
7. Court Cancelations: To insure all members can enjoy the courts, members are requested to cancel a reservation that they cannot use as soon as possible. Court cancelations cannot be made on-line.
8. No Shows: There is a $30 charge to the member who books the court and fails to cancel and does not show up for a reserved court time.
9. Waiting List for Court Reservations: Members without advance court reservations on the books are given priority on the wait list for court times.
10. Making Reservations for Other Members: Occasionally there are groups of members wishing to reserve adjacent courts or consecutive court times. The general policy limits one person to reserving two court periods at a time either by phone or in person (this requires authorized use of four members’ names). Larger blocks of times for parties are sometimes available during non-busy hours and are approved by special request.
11. Guests: Members may bring an unlimited number of different guests to the Club. However, the same guest is limited to one visit per calendar month if the guest is using athletic portions of the Club or locker rooms (even if sponsored by different members). Normal guest fees are posted at the Front Desk. An athletic guest using the Club a second time in the same calendar month will be charged a double guest fee and may not be permitted access. These rules also apply to health club members who play tennis with tennis members. If “guest” is used as one of the names to book a court, a non-refundable guest fee will be charged to the member at the time of booking.
12. Check in for Tennis Courts: Check-in at the concierge desk is required prior to proceeding to a court. Members expecting to be late for the start of their court time may check-in for their court by telephone to make sure that the Concierge Desk does not give the court away as a “no show”. Check-in by telephone will hold the court for 30 minutes, but other members will be allowed to use the court until the members with the reservation arrive. Members who check in by phone must still check in at the concierge desk upon arrival to verify that they have arrived. Courts will be given to waiting members after a 10 minute grace period if the members with the reservation have not checked in for the court. If members have checked in for the court, the court will be held for 30 minutes prior to giving it to waiting members. A court must be occupied by a minimum of two players to retain the occupancy of the court.

Check in for Courts: Check-in at the concierge desk is required prior to proceeding to a court. Members expecting to be late for the start of their court time may check- in for their court by telephone to make sure that the concierge desk does not give the court away as a “no show”. Check-in by telephone will hold the court for the entire court period, but other members will be allowed to use the court until the members with the reservation arrive. Members who check in by phone must still check in at the concierge desk upon arrival to verify that they have arrived. Courts will be given to waiting members after a 10 minute grace period if the members with the reservation have not checked in for the court.

Substitutions

Substitutions for advance reservations, by phone or in person, are defined as changing the name of a player on the books in either singles or doubles before arriving for the scheduled court time. Any court reserved for singles or doubles play may substitute only one player. If further substitution becomes necessary, the court reservation is lost and must be re-booked. The court is then available to whomever is on the waiting list. A member shall substitute only one time a month. Substituting more than once a calendar month is a violation. If this should occur, the offending player(s) will be suspended from play for thirty days.

Violations

Using a name of someone with whom there is no intention of playing or using a false name on the reservation sheet may result in an automatic thirty-day suspension from the courts.

Please refer to the Child Care brochure, available at the Front Desk, for most recent schedule of hours and fees. The general policies for Child Care are as follows:

1. Enrollment and Medical Forms: PRO Sports Club requires that all paperwork be on file before your child’s first day of attendance. The Enrollment Application and Emergency Medical Authorization provides the Club with parent information, authorization for release of your child to other adults, emergency contacts, and health and medical histories. Additionally, it gives the Club permission to seek emergency medical treatment should your child require such care. The Emergency Medical Authorization portion of the form accompanies each child when they participate in field trips or other excursions away from the PRO Sports Club.
2. Reservations are highly recommended. To be guaranteed a space for your child, please make reservations as far in advance as possible. Fire codes limit the number of children. In-person reservations or telephone reservations may be made at any time Child Care is open. Online reservations can also be made on our website at any time. For the safety of your children, and in fairness to our staff, “drop ins” cannot be accepted if all reserved spaces are filled.
3. Evening and weekend staff are provided only on an 'on call' basis. Reservations for these times must be made three hours in advance. If there are not reservations made at these times, there may not be Child Care staff available.
4. Cancelations and 'No Shows': If you need to cancel a Child Care reservation, please call the Child Care reservation line before closing the day prior to your reservation. A one-hour cancel fee will be charged for same day cancels. “No shows” will be billed for all reserved hours.
5. Child Care, special classes and camps are intended for members’ children. The guest policy applies to all other children.
6. Discovery Bay is a state licensed facility. Parents may go offsite while leaving their child in Discovery Bay.
7. There is a ten (10) hour maximum time limit.
8. Children with reservations may come late, but they must leave at the prearranged time unless the Child Care staff approves a longer stay.
9. Ill children will not be accepted.
