Individual Play

Members of Apple Athletic Club can book a court for any open time two days prior to the scheduled time by calling the facility's main number at (208) 529-0300. There is a court fee charge to be divided by the players on court. It is assumed that everybody using the court at the scheduled time is a member of Apple Athletic Club. There is a court fee charge to be divided by the players on court. For 2009 the prime season (Labor Day through Memorial Day) court fee is $18.00 plus tax while the off season (Memorial Day through Labor Day) is $14.00 plus tax.

Player Matching

The staff at the tennis facility takes great pride in providing excellent service. If you are new to the area or returning to the sport after an absence we offer player matching either by contacting like-skilled players for you to play or by enrolling you in one of our many leagues.

Club Leagues
We offer an extensive league program throughout the year with the majority of league play comprising the time between early September and late April. League fees generally are in line with court fees and are due at the beginning of each league session. Sessions run from four to seven weeks each, depending on the surrounding dates and events such as club tournaments or major holidays. There is no limitation regarding the number of league times a player may sign up for. In the interest of compatible play we use the United States Tennis Association's (USTA) National Tennis Rating Program (NTRP) to determine the appropriate league schedule for our members.

 

 

Club TournamentsApple Athletic Club organizes a spring and club fall tournament open to adults and juniors, usually in February and October. The club further sponsors two adult USTA sanctioned events in late April and the Thanksgiving weekend as well. The Thanksgiving tournament offers prize money in every division and is generously sponsored by Ron Sayer BMW. Furthermore, there are a number of USTA sanctioned junior events every year - several of them during the summer months.

In addition, we make an effort to provide other competitive experiences such as a regular semi-annual exchange with Juniper Hills Country Club (Pocatello) and exchanges with other clubs. In conjunction with the Idaho Falls Community Tennis Association we host events such as a Mother/Daughter, Father/Son tournament or a one-day singles or doubles shoot-out.

Special Events & Parties
Tennis at Apple is supposed to be fun. Numerous times throughout the year one-day events or parties are held to allow the members to mingle, bring friends and just have a  good time - that involves tennis. Often times the Idaho Falls Community Tennis Association will either host or co-host an event. The combined efforts of Apple Athletic Club with the IFCTA have brought unprecedented growth to the greater Idaho Falls tennis community. These efforts have been lauded at the state, regional and national level of the USTA.
