WHO CAN USE THE SPINSHOT PLUS?

Any members over the age of 17 can attain access to the Spinshot Plus machine. Any juniors wishing to use the machine must be accompanied by a responsible adult who has had the instructional induction before booking

The machine can be hired for £11 per hour by members only, this can now be paid for directly through the website when booking the ball machine hire court (shown as Court 4 on the booking scheduler)

HOW TO ACCESS THE SPINSHOT PLUS?

The tennis court and ball machine must both be booked via the Clubspark court booking system.

The ball machine, balls and the oscillator are kept in a secure location protected with a combination padlock. This combination will be given out on the day of hire. 

The machine must be returned & secured on completion of the hire.

IMPORTANT POINTS

The ball machine is a coaching aid, that helps players practice without the need of a hitting partner.  The machine is also a great help with practicing specific shots, 72 x cross court backhands for example.

You must adhere to your arranged time slot, the machine has a limited battery life, so it's important that the members abide by the 60 minute rule to ensure that the machine has charge remaining if there is a following period of hire.
