Please sign this petition to help ensure that the Huntcliff tennis courts remain for tennis only! Reasons to support this:

1. We currently are a four court facility, that is used OFTEN! Adding pickleball courts will add to the congestion of our already busy courts. Also, you cannot play USTA matches on courts with pickleball striping.

2. The pickleball lines are distracting to tennis players and we would have to store nets against the side of courts as well as equipment, which would take away from the natural beauty of our riverside facility. Not to mention, the sound associated with playing pickleball will be very distracting to homeowners, pool guests and other tennis players.

3. We support adding a standalone pickleball court at the pondhouse! In addition, our neighborhood is surrounded by five (5) facilities that offer strictly pickleball playing opportunities within five (5) miles of Huntcliff!

DO NOT DONATE AT THE END!!! THE DONATIONS DO NOT GO TO HUNTCLIFF!

Agree with all 3 items. Had to play Alta match beside pickle ball and it was awful - could not concentrate, gave me a terrible headache and we lost even though much better players.

I want our courts to remain for tennis only....rhe sound of pickleball is terrible and disturbs the peace for everyone nearby

Played an Alta match at a club where every tennis court had Pickleball lines and it was terrible. Pickleball is not a fad, build separate courts.

The pond house area seems to be a better solution for PB courts. It’s such a waste to have that unused space. Plus pickleball did not gain traction when we tried to get it going several years back.

I strongly disagree with adding pickleball lines to any of the tennis courts at Huntcliff. Our courts are a special place and we do not want to ruin the prestige of the area with the noise of pickleball. In addition to the noise, we lose the ability to host USTA sanctioned events on courts with pickleball lines. Tennis drives revenue for our community. We need to protect the integrity of the sport at Huntcliff.

Add pickleball next to court 4 or by pond house but don’t cut tennis back. This is not a win-lose community it’s a swim-tennis community.

If a PB court were to be built at the Pond House, make it a tennis court with lines for PB. Then extra tennis court for rainouts or pick=up play during ALTA matches on the clubhouse courts.
