Irrigation




Each spring the irrigation on all the clay courts must be checked and adjusted. After the winter, sprinkler heads may be broken or or out of alignment. An improperly adjusted head, in the confines of a tennis court will leave a court too wet or dry and inhibit proper maintenance. All of our clay courts are irrigated each night by automatic sprinkler and then by hand in the morning and afternoon.
Today Tim and Nate adjusted clay courts 9-14.
