Club Rules, Constitution & Play Etiquette

The main purpose of the ACTC rules is to protect your membership interests so that the behaviour of other members does not unduly reduce the enjoyment of your tennis experience.

The second purpose is to enable the Club to comply with the terms and conditions of our agreement with the Town of Aurora.  

A more in depth description of club rules and play etiquette is to be found in the ACTC Constitution.
