Corona Virus update 31st May 2020

Following guidance from the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA), from 31st May 2020 we are able to ease restrictions to play available at Hampton in Arden Tennis Club. In addition to the LTA guidelines, the Hampton in Arden Tennis committee have also agreed the following local rules to ensure the safety of our playing members:

1. DO NOT leave your home to play Tennis if Government Advice means you should stay at home because you or someone you live with has or has had symptoms of Covid 19 or you are in the most vulnerable category and have been advised to shield from the Coronavirus. If someone who has played develops symptoms of Covid 19 they must follow the Governments ‘test and trace’ guidelines which can be read on the Gov.uk website.
2. From 1st June, both Singles Play and Doubles play is permitted with people from outside your household, as long as you remain 2 metres apart as far as possible – meaning that four people from different houses can now play doubles.
3. You must book a court in advance. Please enter all the players names onto the booking system if possible.
4. You should wash your hands before you leave home and take your own hand sanitiser with you. You are advised to clean your hands with alcohol gel after touching shared surfaces such as gates.
5. Take your own equipment and take only the minimum amount of equipment you need. Do not share it with others and take all your belongings home. Please do not leave anything on court.
6. Players do not now need to use their own clearly marked tennis balls – however, if you choose to use shared balls then extra care must be taken to ensure you do not touch your face during play and you should clean your hands before play and immediately after finishing (use alcohol gel if required).
7. The entry gates will be left open. Avoid touching the court gates, fences, nets, benches etc. The nets will be left at the correct height.
8. Allow others to leave before you enter the court – if you need to wait then do so away from the courts and clear of the gates.
9. Court 2 will now be available. For Court 1 please use the gate near the clubhouse. For Court 2 you can use the gate for Court 1 or the gate for the mini court and Court 3. For Court 3 use the gate for the mini court and Court 4 use the gate near the Scout and Guide Hut.
10. Other than where players are from the same household, players should at all times adhere to the Governments Social Distancing Guidelines (staying at least 2m away from others) and practice public health advice for hygiene. Please do not make physical contact with other players (no hand shaking). For doubles, consider agreeing in advance which player will take the shot if a ball travels to the centre of the court.
11. Where attendance of a parent/guardian (no participant) is required or a carer for a disabled player, it is permitted and is not counted as part of the maximum group size of 6, but should be off court and limited to one per player where possible, with social distancing strictly observed while watching the sessions.
12. The Clubhouse, toilets and changing facilities will remain closed.
13. You must have paid your tennis club membership and for the time being visitors will not be allowed to play.

We appreciate these rules will take some getting used to but they are essential to ensure the safety of all our members so please read them before coming to play.

For more details from the LTA please see their Guidance on Covid 19 Return to Restricted Play.

Many thanks
