<br />ATTACHMENT 1 <br /> <br />Tennis court usage report for the <br />Pleasanton Tennis Park <br />(July 16th - October 31 '" 2005) <br /> <br />From July 15 to October 15,2005, all tennis court usage was tracked at Pleasantpn <br />Tennis & Community Park. During this period (102 days), there were 119 open play <br />occasions (1.1 groups per day) whereby alii 0 tennis courts were full and one or more <br />individuals were unable to play tennis. 81 (67%) of those situations occurred during <br />night play (under the lights). <br /> <br />In order to quantify the number of players in a group, we monitored the reservation and <br />walk-on court usage during the study timeline. In nearly every situation, either 2 or 4 <br />players made up a group. Overall, there was even proportion of singles (2) and doubles <br />(4) groups. For the purpose of itemizing the number of tennis players at any given time, <br />we conclude that the median size ofan open play group was 3 people. <br /> <br />Based on the data, it is estimated that 393 people, or 3.3 per day, were unable to play <br />tennis at Pleasanton Tennis and Community Park at the time of their choosing during the <br />study period. <br /> <br />During this time, there were two peak playing times that accounted for the majority of <br />full capacity situations; Monday - Friday from 7:00pm - 9:00pm (65%) and Saturdays <br />from 9am-12pm (11%). <br /> <br />A breakdown of the "capacity & turn away" occasions are as follows: <br /> <br />July - 25 occasions in II days (2.3 groups or 6.9 people per day) <br />August - 44 occasions in 31 days (1.4 groups or 4.2 people per day) <br />September - 30 occasions in 30 days (I group or 3 people per day) <br />October - 20 occasions in 31 days (.6 groups or 1.8 people per day) <br /> <br />The attached spreadsheet highlights details from each occasion: day of the week, specific <br />date, unavailable court time, next available court time, court conditions <br />(lit or unlit) and professional tennis broadcast on TV that day. <br /> <br />Prepared by: Dana Gill, Lifetime Tennis <br />Tuesday, November 1,2005 <br />
