<p>Also, there has been talk of a structure that incentivizes the pro to do more lessons/ programs. This structure pays the Pro a fixed base pay, and then the pro only starts earning the lesson fees once the base pay is reached, after that it is all gravy for the Pro. Are you familiar with this model? Thanks again.</p>

<p>Thanks again. This all sounds very reasonable to me. </p>
<p></p>
<p>My main hesitation is the 0% to the club and that the club dues should somehow cover maintenance - this is not happening at our club. Our pro is probably taking home 6 figures and is rarely present, and has not hired top tier help as you have suggested. So, as with any job, you will find many different approaches.</p>

<p>a contract is a contract. if you dont want outside members then no outside members. but if its stated 70/30 split and non members have to pay 100 while members have to pay 50 you split both 70/30%</p>

<p>a tennis director of any capacity,adults junior etc..... salary range can be from 16k to 100k depending on size and volume for the club.</p>
<p>so if you have only 2 courts in a neighborhood. you can even set the classes yourself, and contract a pro to be there for certain times and pay for the hour that they are there. which can be better for a community tennis court.</p>
