- This is the Year of the IC Fourth Court!
Please sign this petition to show our Executive Director and the IC Board of Directors that we support the construction of a fourth platform tennis court in 2023. With men's and women's teams playing the top divisions, we deserve to play four lines simultaneously. The Paddle membership has already raised almost $50K toward the court. Now we are asking the Club to allocate the additional funds needed in the 2023 budget.
Let's make it happen!

I have been hearing from so many of you who are tired of waiting around for an open court during league play. The energy behind this push is undeniable and proves that our club is ready for this expansion.

Seeing this kind of energy for the fourth court reminds me why I start every morning out on the paddle lines. We finally have the momentum we need to show the Board that this upgrade is essential for our teams.

We have been IC members for more than 20 years - paddle ball is what keeps us as sustaining members. In competitive matches as well as team practices, not having a fourth court limits the availability not only for team members but also budding players who are interested in playing this sport. Paddle players are committed club members & we would like to see our request which has long been unanswered granted. Thanks in advance!
As a former member of Coveleigh Club in Rye, NY (4 paddle courts) and Roxbury (4 paddle courts). We absolutely need these for member satisfaction and to remain competitive.
Paddle is a key reason for my IC membership. As my teenagers go to College over the upcoming 5 years, it becomes a more important feature. A Director of Racquets is a great add to the club and I am excited for that. Now we need club support for facilities that are used year round. A forth court is needed for leagues, tournaments, socials, etc. It would provide a strong support for the new Director of Racquets. Having 3 courts limits the amount of Paddle programs that can be enacted.
Having four courts has become table stakes and would allow all teams to play at the same time on weekends instead of staggering starts (which only causes frustration and problems for the captains/players). Please keep the IC competitive and don't let the IC fall behind due to lack of a court.
Not only would the 4th court provide us the ability to play all 4 lines of league matches at the same time and support the need for court time, but the mens league is currently capped at 4 teams per league regulations given we only have 3 cts, yet we have the players and the skill levels to add teams and focus on promoting them to higher divisions.
Thank you
Needed to maintain the great sportsmanship and teaming of the paddle player and the whole IC. So please approve ASAP

The IC paddle community is greatly in need of another court to continue to grow. We have put in a great deal of our own time and effort to raise funds toward this court. We now need the IC to support us by designating funds for a 4th paddle court in this years budget.
