Program Procedures during
Rain/Air Quality/Acts of Nature

To find out the status of an Eagle Fustar clinic or Eagle Fustar Program
at Goldman Tennis Center – please follow or simply check posts made to
Eagle Fustar Twitter.
You may also call the Goldman Tennis Center at (phone number TBD).

We attempt to update Twitter an hour before the clinic, and oftentimes can do it much earlier than that, when we know weather issues will last throughout the day. Other times, particularly when raining, nature does not cooperate and give us a lot of time to get the word out. Coaches may be busy trying to dry the courts or sense changing weather and are waiting to send more precise information. Coaches on site will update Eagle Fustar Twitter as soon as they have information to share, and certainly update no later than 30 minutes prior (if not much earlier, again, depending on changing weather). We want to be on the courts every day, but safety always remains our first priority.

  • No refunds or credits will be issued for requests received less than 5 working days prior to the first class/camp meeting.
  • No refunds will be given for non-attendance (no-show) or for any reason other than a cancellation by Lifetime Activities. Credit to your Lifetime account for special circumstances such as injury will be at discretion of Eagle Fustar.
