Hey Galbraith Tennis Center family,
As you may recall, we recently outlined our plans for a staged reopening of Galbraith Tennis Center on July 6. We’re beyond excited to announce that we’re ready to start Step One of our reopening on June 22, including court reservations and private lessons.
Why are we opening on this date? After careful consideration and reviewing safety protocols and PPE equipment status, we determined we’re running ahead of schedule and wanted to give ourselves a bit more time during Step One of our reopening plan to work out the kinks before we begin our summer camps and limited programming in July.
Additionally, our summarized Facility Safety Protocol procedures can be found here.
We have summarized our staggered reopening plan along with estimated start dates below.
Step One: We will start the limited reopening process with limited access to court reservations and private lessons.

Safety remains a top priority for members and guests of Galbraith Tennis Center. Things may be a little different upon re-entering our facility since your last visit, such as:
- Required temperature checks for all members, guests and staff.
- Limiting group size for common areas and courts in accordance with local guidelines
- Requiring staff to wear face coverings.
- Requiring all members and guests wear protective face coverings at all times with the exception of when you are on court.
- Encouraging hand and respiratory hygiene, including the installation of hand sanitation kiosks throughout the facility, including court side.
- Implementing new protocols for intensified disinfection.
- Enforcing physical distancing strategies.
- We will no longer process cash transactions or issue paper receipts. Members are encouraged to place a payment card on file or pay for services prior to arriving at the facility. Payment for programs is easily accepted via the member portal, our app or over the phone prior to arrival.
- Each guest MUST check in, using the membership card provided or displayed on our app.
- At the end of each lesson/court reservations, players should exit the building as instructed by the signs posted on your court.
