Summer Adult & Junior club & coaching sessions are underway throughout the week including evenings. The court repainting (Autumn 22') resulted in more members joining in club activities. We would love even more members & past members to join in organised activities so please get in touch & let us know what you are interested in & when! We will see that it happens & incentivise NEW sessions. One idea is to have a coach attend the opening session & maybe the last session each term...
