Telford is a relaxed and progressive club, but there is a code of conduct which should be observed. In general, players are expected, both on and off the court, to conduct themselves in a way which reflects favourably on the game and their fellow players. Members must be courteous on court and respect those playing around them.
 

The following guidelines should be observed:

• Only go to your court during an appropriate pause in play, such as at the start of a new game.
• Do not go onto adjacent courts to retrieve balls during play.
• Promptly pass balls which stray onto your court to the server on the adjacent court (but not while a point is being played!).
• Server to call the score after every point and the game score after each game.
• Do not use bad language on court.
• Do not hit, kick or throw a racket, ball or other object in anger.
• Players must not receive coaching during a match except from a doubles partner.
• Avoid returning a first serve fault.
• Wait for the first ball to be cleared and the receiver to be ready before playing a second serve.
• Be scrupulously fair in all line decisions. Players are responsible for calls on their side of the net and should not make decisions or volunteer opinion on calls from the other side of the net.
• If you are dissatisfied with a call made by an opponent, simply ask once, "Are you sure?" If the answer is yes, play must continue.
• If there is any doubt over a call, the point may be replayed.
