Playing

Club mix-ins.  There is no need to book, just "turn up and play"  - see below

At all other times members should book a court for their game 

Courts are booked through either the ClubSpark Booker app or the Book a Court page on this website. Bookings can be made 7 days in advance.  If you are unable to play, the court must be cancelled so  that other members can use the court.

Please vacate the court  promptly at the end of your session. If you use one of our artificial clay courts, please leave enough time to sweep it in preparation for the next players - see below.


Practice Wall

Our Practice wall is situated on mini-court number 1 and requires a court booking.

After use, please ensure that you replace the mini tennis net and posts.


Need a Playing Partner?

If you're new to the club and looking for a game, our coaches will be pleased to introduce you to both full and midweek members of similar standard. 


Ball Machine

The Club has a ball machine which is available free to adult members. If you would like to use it please ask Ian, our coach, for a demonstration. The pressureless 2-tone balls should be used with the machine. Please don’t use it if the courts or balls are wet.


Floodlights

Our three artificial clay courts have LED floodlights which are free for members to use.

How to use Floodlights

The floodlight controls are inside the clubhouse on the wall between the patio doors

Use the arrows on the front of the box to select the court you have booked. 

Add the time by turning the switch on the right side of the box.  Only add time for the period you have booked.

REMEMBER  to turn lights off if you finish early or if no one is using them for whatever reason

Full, illustrated instructions are on the wall above the box

Five minutes before your time expires a blue light on the central lighting column will start to flash. 

When the floodlights go off auxiliary lights will come on to help you see to leave

The lights shut off automatically at 10.00pm


Artificial Clay Courts – Court Maintenance After Play

After you finish playing, unless the court is very wet, the clay should be reditributed so that it completely covers the carpet underneath.

Please sweep each half of the court, including the area between baseline and fence, using the clay drag-mat in the following pattern:
