Our 2nd Floodlit tournament on all 5 courts with 20 players - great fun!
We plan to have these regularly once tennis resumes. Please see PLAY > FLOODLIT FUN for more info.
DOT'S PLAQUE: For those of you who haven't yet seen it, we thought you'd like to see the bench plaque in memory of Dot, a founder member of Bovingdon & Flaunden Tennis Club - opened in 1979.
DONATED FUNDS: Thanks to a generous Box Moor Trust Covid-support grant, we have been able to purchase an outdoor defibrillator cabinet as well as extra sanitiser and dispensers. A reminder that a defibrillator is designed for anyone to use: please see details and a demonstration video on the website under COURT BOOKINGS or using this link: Defibrillator. The cabinet access code is C159
FACILITIES UPDATE:
A big thanks to Paul Campbell for power brushing courts 4 and 5. The machine picked up most debris that the leaf blower doesn't lift and has made the surface less slippery. All 5 tarmac courts will be more slippery when wet: tennis shoes with good grip will make a big difference, but please be careful.
Solar lights now line the path behind the courts
The hitting wall now has a new base surface - the edging and the back wall will completed as soon as regulations allow.
A specialised tennis court squeegee has been ordered to help with any small puddles accumulating on court.
