At the sole discretion of the City Park Tennis Director, APMs may use rollover courts with several limitations: (a) if the pass program courts are full and other courts are available, the APMs can request a court assignment at the front desk; (b) all assignments are subject to being bumped if the court is sold later to the public; and (c) if bumped the court must be surrendered immediately and without complaint.
All details are not worked out. This will involve some trial and error. Graciousness and a good sense of humor will help smooth out any hiccups. In particular, the CPTC is working closely with the City Park Tennis Director, (Patti Todd) and her staff to maximize the tennis experience at the South’s premier public tennis facility. The CPTC looks to represent the interests of the APMs as new tennis programs are implemented to serve the needs of the tennis public.

Chester gives his OK and then shows Martin how it's done!
Below is a picture of Ernie and his USTA Super Sr. 70's team Sunday afternoon after they won the Southern Sectionals 2010 in Hilton Head.
The other states were South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi.
Our team represented Louisiana, because they won our state tournament.
They did not lose a match in either tournament.
Ernie made the winning shot, a drop shot which they did not expect.
Charlie Johnson did not lose a match at all during the whole tournament. All of the guys on the team played really good. It was a real team win!!
Needless to say, we are all very happy in New Orleans for a year anyway.
