There are no reservable courts here, so there is nothing to book on rec.us. See how to book a tennis court for courts that take reservations.

When you play on an open court, the city’s walk-up rules apply: a 5-minute warm-up, one set (30 minutes if rallying), giving up the court after the set when others are waiting, and taking the next court together for doubles when four players are waiting. More in the walk-up courts guide and court etiquette.
