You may well have heard that we have a new Ball Machine for use by members. It is now available to book on the court bookings page of the website.

Our insurers require users to have "correct instruction". If you’re available please come down between 10 and 1130 Sunday 10th May as the ball machine will be in use at our start of season social morning (weather permitting!) and we can demonstrate how to use it then. Or, please contact Derek 07939 255330, Dan 07398 147870, Stuart 07951 733848 or see Jamie Allen or Keith Robinson down at the club.

The Ball Machine operating instructions can be found here.

In order to have some control over the use of the machine members should book  (once you have completed training) the machine through Clubspark. Once on the Court Booking page of the website you will see 2 tabs - click on the Ball Machine User tab. To the top right you will see a drop down menu called View My Bookings which is set to View as Member - click in here and change to Ball Machine User (this will only appear if you have been given the instruction). You will then be able to book the Ball Machine.

The Booker app can’t be used to book the ball machine. 

Some important  advice  - only use on the hard courts -  do not use on wet courts - do not fill the hopper when the machine is firing balls.
