MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT

I understand that I must legally reside within 50 miles of UK’s campus to be a member of Wildcat Tennis Club (hereafter “WTC”). 

I understand that WTC membership fees cover insurance, administrative costs, and equipment. The annual membership fee for players grades 1st-5th is $100 and grades 6th-12th is $200. UKAD facility fees are included in the clinic session rate. All payments for membership fees and clinic sessions must be made to WTC online at www.wildcattennisclub.com before players step onto the court for their session (excluding player assessments). Please be sure to zero out the contribution prompt automated by Zeffy when making your payment, you do NOT pay any fees for signing up online.

I understand that cash, Venmo or private payment to WTC Staff is in violation of UKAD’s Local Sports Policy agreement with WTC and the UKAD Clubs and Lessons Policy and Procedures.  I understand that WTC does not offer membership discounts. 

I understand that Cedric Kauffmann, Matthew Gordon, and Carey Rubin are employed by the University of Kentucky and insured through the university. I also understand that WTC Staff are employed and insured through WTC with coverage through Erie Insurance.

I understand Matt Gordon assigns groups. Groupings can change from session to session to maintain skill level balance and player-to-pro ratio.

I understand that players must be WTC members to play on any UKAD courts and have paid the membership fee to receive private lessons (even if not enrolled in clinics) and that WTC Staff must be paid through WTC electronically through our online system, Zeffy. 

I understand that WTC Staff completed the "University of Kentucky Programs Involving Minors Notification Form" in addition to a criminal background check and National Sex Offender Public Registry check from Vision Security Consultants, Inc. within the last five years and have current CPR/AED certification.

I understand that the University of Kentucky recreational courts are only available to current UK students, UK employees, UK faculty, UK administration, WTC Staff, and WTC Members.  I understand that taking lessons on the UK courts with someone who does not meet the above requirements for access violates this Member Agreement and will result in the termination of WTC Membership.

I understand that WTC provides members with photo releases in their membership application and it is the right of the member to accept or deny use of photographs of themselves on this website or on social media.

I understand that WTC follows NCAA guidelines and UKAD Clubs and Lessons Policy and Procedures and WTC receives bi-annual compliance reviews through the UKAD compliance office.

I understand that WTC is not affiliated with Club Blue and does not donate funds or provide membership discounts to subsidize Club Blue.

I understand that WTC is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization operated by the Wildcat Tennis Club of Kentucky Board of Directors.
