Frequently asked questions

Normally, tryouts are held annually in the Fall at the end of September. Now, with current restrictions caused by COVID-19, our 2020-2021 tryouts may be moved to Winter Quarter. Please refer to https://www.calpolyclubtennis.com/tryouts and our instagram (@cpclubtennis) for more frequent information on tryouts.

No problem! Contact us and we will be able to arrange another time for you to try out. We hold alternate tryouts during our regularly scheduled practice time (7-9 pm) at a date to be determined.

Practices are Monday-Thursday 7:30-9:30pm. They are non-mandatory but highly encouraged.

Active members pay dues of $60 per quarter or $150 per year if paid in advance. If players attend tournaments, there can be additional costs to cover food and travel expenses.

Practices are held Mon-Thurs 7-9 pm, and we travel to tournaments monthly. All practices and tournaments are NOT mandatory, so it is often easily balanced with school or other extracurricular activities. Tournaments are almost exclusively on weekends so they do not interefere with weekly class schedules.

Club tennis travels and practices year-round.

Our Cal Poly club tennis team is highly competitive both in our region as well as in the nation. Oftentimes it serves as a great option for those who aren't interested in the commitment of a Division 1 program, while still wanting to compete at a high level. Cal Poly tennis competes against other schools throughout Southern California, whereas intramural teams play only against other Cal Poly players. Also, intramural tennis is more recreational than Club Tennis (but both are very fun!).

There is no exact skill level required to make the team. Our team is highly competitive, and many of our players have been playing for several years on their high school varsity teams and in USTA tournaments. With that being said, cuts are still made at tryouts and we encourage all players who do not make the team to continue playing outside of the club team through Intramurals or outside hitting.
