General Operating Principles

At Bellevue Pickleball Club, we maintain comprehensive policies, procedures, rules, and operational guidelines ("Club Rules") designed to ensure the safe, enjoyable, and equitable use of our Facilities and Activities for all members and guests. These Club Rules apply to your conduct at all times while on the Facilities, participating in Activities, or using any Club services, equipment, or amenities.

As a member or guest, you are responsible for familiarizing yourself with and adhering to all Club Rules and the terms of this Agreement at all times. The current version of this Agreement is available on our website and at the Club's front desk. You may request a printed copy at any time. Additional rules and guidelines may be posted throughout the Facilities or communicated to you through other means.

We reserve the right to modify, update, or amend the terms of this Agreement, including our Club Rules and operational policies, at any time without prior notice. Your continued membership or use of the Facilities and Activities following any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the modified terms. However, any changes to the liability waiver, risk assumption, or indemnification provisions of this Agreement will require your express written or electronic consent.

Enforcement and Consequences

Violation of any provision of this Agreement or any Club Rules may result in immediate suspension or permanent termination of your membership, access privileges, or participation rights at our sole discretion. Such enforcement actions may be taken without refund of any fees, dues, or other payments you have made to the Club.

Court Reservation System

Court reservations operate on a first-come, first-served basis and are subject to availability. We do not guarantee court availability at any specific date or time. The Club reserves the right to modify, restrict, cancel, or suspend court reservations to accommodate special events, tournaments, corporate functions, maintenance activities, or other operational needs. While we will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of such scheduling changes, we are not obligated to do so.

Membership and Payment Policies

Monthly Membership Cancellations: To cancel a monthly membership, you must provide written notice to Club management at least seven (7) days before your next scheduled billingdate. Failure to provide timely notice will result in processing of the next monthly payment. No partial refunds will be provided for monthly membership fees upon cancellation.

Annual Membership Cancellations: Annual memberships may be cancelled with full refund only if written cancellation notice is provided within seven (7) days of the initial membership signup date. After this seven-day period expires, no refunds will be provided for annual membership payments regardless of the reason for cancellation.

Membership Suspension: Each membership account may be suspended once per twelve-month period. Suspension requests must be submitted in writing to Club management. A eighty-dollar ($80) administrative fee applies to each suspension and reactivation. Suspension requests must be submitted at least 5 business days before the next billing date to avoid payment processing. Memberships may be suspended for up to one (1) month, after which they will automatically reactivate. Membership suspension is not availble for annual or Full-Ride(23 Months) Membership.
