All the Latest News, Achievements, and Opportunities at Your Club
Welcome Back to Tennis!
With the new season just around the corner, we’re thrilled to welcome all members back to the courts. There’s plenty happening at the club, from exciting facility upgrades to vibrant social gatherings. Read on to discover all the updates and how you can get involved!
Celebrating Success – Ladies Team 4 ๐
A huge congratulations to our Ladies Team 4, who finished top of their league last season! This outstanding achievement perfectly showcases the competitive spirit and social atmosphere that define our club. Congratulations to everyone involved; we can’t wait to support all our teams again this season.
Clean & Play Day – Thank You! ๐งน
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in our recent Clean & Play Day. It was fantastic to see so many members pitching in and enjoying some tennis together afterward. Your hard work made a big impact! There are still a few tasks left to finish over the coming weeks—if you can lend a hand, even briefly, your help would be most appreciated.
Clubhouse Update – New Roof ๐
We’re excited to announce that the clubhouse roof has been fully replaced, safeguarding our building for years to come. This project was completed at a cost of £17,280, ensuring a comfortable and secure space for everyone.
Court Rejuvenation & Volunteer Help ๐พ
Courts 3-5 have recently undergone rejuvenation and look fantastic for the new season, thanks to a project costing £15,000. To keep them in top condition, we’re seeking volunteers to help with dragging the courts using the tractor and attachment. It’s quick and easy, and with a few helping hands, everyone benefits. Please let us know if you can assist.
Entrance to Court 4 – Slabs Needed
We’re planning to improve the entrance to Court 4 and need slabs for a proper pathway. If you have any spare slabs, your donation would be greatly appreciated, and we’re also looking for volunteers to help lay them. Every contribution matters!
