Once I have booked my court, how do I get access?
Once you have booked your court, you will receive a booking confirmation email.
Your booking confirmation will include a six-digit gate code (remember you must include the Asterix *) which you can then enter on the keypad at the gate. It is always useful to have your booking confirmation handy for inspection purposes.
I haven’t received confirmation of my booking or my gate access code. What should I do?
The gate access code is provided within your confirmation email. Please check the junk folder of the email account provided when you signed up.
Alternatively, please log into your Clubspark account and check your bookings where you will see the details of your booking, alongside the gate access code.
If you still cannot find your confirmation email or gate access code, email info@hassocks-pc.gov.uk in advance of your booking (email address monitored during office hours).
What do I do if my gate code doesn't work?
Double-check that you are trying to use the correct gate code for the court and booking. Remember to include the Asterix * before the six-digit number. If the code you are entering is correct, please check your booking confirmation for further advice.
If you have followed all these steps and are still unable to open the gate, please email info@hassocks-pc.gov.uk for further advice (email address monitored during office hours).
Can I make a booking for coaching purposes?
Only coaches appointed by Hassocks Parish Council are authorised to deliver coaching activities on the courts. If you are interested in receiving coaching services, see the Tennis Coaching page.

How do I cancel a booking?
