UPDATE MARCH 2024 - The lights on courts 1-3 have been disabled on the advice of the electrical contractors who stated they were unsafe to use. We are working to have the lights upgraded to LEDs. In the meantime, courts 4-6 remain fully operational.

General

All courts are now floodlit with the usage costs included in membership/court rental fees. We ask everyone to use the lights responsibly and ensure they are switched off after use. There is an automated cut-off preventing use before 7am and after 10pm.

The lights on courts 4-6 are more environmentally friendly than the lights on courts 1-3 and we ask members to prioritise their use accordingly.

Please note that members aged under 14 years must be supervised by an adult when using the floodlights.

NB Please remember to close the cabinets securely after use to protect the switch gear from weather damage.

Courts 1-3 : metal halide lights

The controls for court 1 are inside the grey cabinet on court 1 and for courts 2 and 3 they are in the cabinet on court 2. Courts 2 and 3 cannot be lit independently of each other.

Operation is via simple round button press - green ON, red OFF (top left inside cabinet).

Please close the cabinet securely after switching lights on or off to prevent weather damage to the circuits.

If others are waiting to play then do not switch the lights off. These lights take time to warm up and have inbuilt delay to allow cooling before they can be switched on again after use.

When switched off the light on one mast will remain on for a short period as a courtesy light to allow lit exit from the court.

Courts 4-6 : LED lights

Courts 4, 5 and 6 can be lit independently. There is no delay in operation - warm-up or cool-down.

Lights for all three courts can be controlled from the small box attached to the main cabinet next to the steps to court 4. 

Each court's lights are separately operated via a simple round button press - green ON, red OFF.   Switches are labelled with the relevant court number.

Lights for courts 5 and 6 can also be operated from the small box next to gate 6.

When switched off one light will remain lit for a short period to allow lit exit from the court.

Please ensure that the switch box is closed securely after use.
