The LTC committee is delighted to be able to show you round the club's brand-new website!
The new site migrates all the great content from our old website to the LTA-provided ClubSpark platform. This allows us to update our site more easily and gives us a "responsive" layout, which means you can browse the pages easily and efficiently regardless of whether you’re on a phone or tablet or computer.
What’s new on the new website?
We've introduced a "Members' Area" where we can post content visible only to you! We'll be adding more info as time allows, but for now let us show you around...
At the top navigation bar, you can find several main categories to help you retrieve relevant info effortlessly. New or renewing members can find out about membership and our coaching programme, run by ACE Coaching. We'll post all the latest news from Committee members under the "News" tab. Also, you can find our "Events" page, information about safeguarding, and a contact form for enquiries to the club. Anyone can access these pages.
For members, you can book a court after login with your British Tennis member info. Alternatively, you can do it through the ClubSpark Booker app.
The Member Area tab groups most of the information that would primarily be of interest to members in one holistic view. Click on this, and if you're logged in a further menu appears...
"Competitions" has details of all current club competitions. Currently we have a "live" update of the summer championships group standings as results come in. The "Court Diary" lists court bookings over the next few months for events like home league matches, social sessions etc, when the courts are not available for booking by individual members. "League Teams" lists every match due to be played by our teams in the Bedfordshire LTA League. There are also contact details here for every team captain. "Past champions" lists recent winners of our summer championships and ladder events. When we can offer branded club clothing, you will find the details on the “Club Clothing”.
At the end, the "Committee" and "Documents" tabs give details of the club's management committee, and important club policy and guideline documents.
We hope you like the new site and find it easy to use on all devices. If you have any comments, or want to see additional content on the site, please get in touch with me. I'd be very pleased to hear your feedback!
