NEW for 2022– Join/renew Goring Tennis Club Membership here, online!
Going online is one of the first changes we have been keen to make to improve our service to our current and new members.
To join the club or renew your membership you must purchase one or more of the membership packages listed below. We have added clear instructions on how to renew or join below to help you.
If you have a problem with the process online you should contact our membership secretary David V. [email protected].
If you want to chat about the packages we offer or are unsure which would suit you , your family or household, then contact Gilly W who runs our Communications. Contact Gilly HERE.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOU START...
Our subscription year begins on April 1st and runs until 31st March each year – Those joining from 1st January pay a full years subscription which takes the membership to 31st March the following year. Memberships are appropriately reduced if joining after June or September.
We offer a wide range of membership packages, including attractive rates for groups or more than one person. Read the packages carefully to get the best option for you from either the single membership or group options.
If you have read all the membership options you may continue to the joining process. Most people will need to purchase only one package to cover their family or household which will cover everyone at their address (see individual packages for information). Please make sure you fill in all the details about you and for all the people in your group if you are purchesing a group membership. TOP TIP - when selecting a date of birth for you or the members in your group - choose the year first before adding month and date...if you dont do this the site will automatically select 2022 as your date of birth! If you make a mistake press 'remove' and refill in the details you need with your correction before moving to the next stage.
Paying for children only? If you are only paying for children (no adult players in the family/househlold) You will have to purchase a separate package for each of the child members , making a separate payment for each child.
HOW TO JOIN OR RENEW
1. Decide on a package appropriate for you, your family or household.
2. Press the "Join Now button". If you have not already registered with the website you will now be invisted to do so. You will be taken to a page where you can enter any details not already entered from your LTA registration. If you have chosen a group package (2022_Couple, 2022_Family_1A or 2022_Family_2A) please make sure you tick the box to include yourself in the group. You can then enter the details of the other family members in the group. Make sure to add all the details e.g. the other members in the group along with their DOB. etc.
3. Payment - You will be asked to pay at this point. There are three main methods offered:
- By direct debit - you will be asked for your bank details
- By credit or debit card - you will be asked to enter the card details
- By other methods - You can pay online to the club's bank account or send a cheque but we do encourage members to pay by one of the previous options if possible, as this reduces the amount of administration.
