As many of you probably noticed, our reclaimed watering system at the SPTC was down for about 10 days, resulting is some rather dry courts. But it has been repaired and is back online!
On Wednesday, February 25th, the City Water Resources notified SPTC that the reclaimed water mainline servicing our immediate area had suffered a catastrophic failure/ rupture. This is the water we use to maintain our courts and it could not have happened at a worse time as we were in the middle of the USTA Raymond James Master's Tournament
With no way to use the automated sprinkler system get much needed water to the courts, we were able to find a watering trailer, and utilized this and other manual watering options to best of our capabilities. We were prepared to continue this partial watering of courts (combined with prayers for rain) for as long as needed.
However, after much dialogue with City Parks & Recreation, the City of St. Pete was able to improvise, adapt and overcome and found a work-around. Friday of last week, March 6th, we were notified that Water Resources had installed a new valve to reroute water to the Bartlett Park corridor, thus enabling us to return to normal watering of our courts.
Our tennis courts are now being watered twice a day, and you'll no longer have to suffer playing on dry and dusty courts. We thank you for your patience and support, and look forward to seeing you on our hydrated courts soon! ... See MoreSee Less

With the water down, Robert was improvising to manually water the courts, 65 gallons at a time!
I played on Sunday, and observed the improvement on the Courts. Way to make positive things happen!!
We had a half-dozen new members sign up in February (in what is typically the slowest month for new memberships for us) and TWO DOZEN members renew for another year of tennis with us. That gives us 227 members, plus over 1,300 Daily Players.
We thank each and every one of you for helping to keep the Tennis Center going strong!!! ... See MoreSee Less
