We are gathering signatures to ask that players not be restricted to playing on only two tennis teams. This limit reduces opportunities to compete, stay active, and be part of the teams and community we care about. For many of us, tennis is not just a game — it is a place to build skills, stay involved, and enjoy the sport with others.

We believe there should be better solutions than a strict two-team limit. If this concern gets over 100 signatures, we would like to request an in-person meeting to better understand the reasoning behind the restriction and to discuss fairer options that work for everyone involved.

We are asking coaches, organizers, and decision-makers to listen to the players and consider a policy that gives more flexibility while still supporting the teams and the sport. A rule like this affects real people who want to participate, improve, and stay connected through tennis.

Thank you for your support and for helping us make our voices heard.

Hello ! Thank you for your support ! I have emailed Monte et all and told them we have started a petition, and I sent the link so they can see our progress. I also sent the other 10 from jotform to Monte et all as well. Between the two, we are almost at 50 signatures. Sadly, this site might cap us at 50, so I am working on someone else doing another link and also trying to learn how to extend my number of signatures. This is all happening quickly. I appreciate your support and patience. My hope is that we force an in-person meeting. Stay tuned ! In the meantime, please write your own emails, short or long, with your concerns. I appreciate you all ! Linda also, feel free to start your own petition to send to those I cannot reach. ipetitions.com

It seems absurd that the club is actually telling its active membership that they are too active and need to limit participation. League play is a fundamental backbone of creating a passionate, healthy tennis environment. This policy is counterproductive to the growth of the sport and is an unfair and inequitable “solution” to finding “more” tennis opportunities. Please remove this two team restriction, so that your active members can continue to support the club through leagues and lessons.

Why did I join WOT? Because of the opportunity to join several teams during each season. It would help if the supporting data for this decision to restrict team membership could be shared as there may be alternative solutions to the perceived problem.

This is limiting players and it’s truly not anyone decision but theirs on how many teams they want to dedicate their time too. Let’s focus on forming too many teams at the same club for zero reasons.
