IH Basics: how to book our tennis courts and lessons

Hello Residents
As many of you have heard, we have recently renovated our tennis courts and they are beautiful! While management sent out some instructions already but we felt it worth sharing here to make sure you always had access to the information.

How to book a court

The courts are open and available via reservation on a first-come, first-serve basis (no pun intended!). All reservations (courts and lessons) are now done through the free Playbypoint app

  1. Download and install the app: iOS, Android

  2. Open it up and register for a new account

  3. During set up, indicate it’s “Independence Harbor / Tennis Prime” as your favorite club

  4. Go ahead and book an available time (see walkthrough video below)

  5. When it’s your time to play, go to the gatehouse, show your reservation in the app and pick up the key FOB from our security person so you can enter the courts

How to book a lesson

While residents can play on their own, we also have a partnership with Tennis Prime, a professional tennis academy based in New Jersey led by Ivan Krcelic who is a licensed and insured professional tennis instructor from Argentina.

Ivan has been working with families and children for over 10 years and he is very dedicated to the development and support of new and experienced players

The good news is that our board has negotiated a discounted hourly rate for residents of 15% off the public rates. As an example, a 1-hour private lesson is $85 (normally it’s $100/hr).

Tennis Prime offers both private lessons and group clinics that focus on specific sets of skills. All of which can be found, including their specific pricing, inside the Playtomic app.

Play on!
