Tain Tennis Club
President’s Message March 2018
I would like to welcome you to the March club update. These are intended to give you an ongoing overview of what we are up to as a club.
The day of ‘tidying’ at the courts in preparation for the forthcoming season goes ahead this Saturday 24th March from 12 noon. Anyone is invited to assist and bring with them an array of things to enable clubhouse cleaning to court clearing. Implements can range from rubber gloves to bin bags through to lawn rakes and leaf blowers. Fill your boots, car boots that is, with ‘stuff’ bring it along and get stuck in. Hopefully the weather will be kind, we get a good turnout and the place looking fantastic in no time.
The membership tabs on our website are now live for the 2018 season. Facilities are there for payment to be made easily either in a lump sum or spread over the year.
Our winter general Club sessions on Mondays Thursdays Fridays and Sundays will revert to the standard Summer times from April 1st as follow;
Tuesdays 4.30 (Juniors)
Tuesdays 7.30 (Adults)
Thursdays 7.30 (Adults)
Fridays 1.30 (Ladies)
Sundays 10.30 (Adults)
There will be a day of social play from 2.00pm on Saturday 7th April to get us all back into the swing if we haven’t already, so get it in the diary. Might even get the BBQ wheeled out if it is suitable.
Our annual inter club fun tournament, the Firths Cup is pencilled in for May this year with the date still to be confirmed.
Our club are participating in the Great British Tennis weekend on 12th and 13th May, and further details are available on our website. New or returning players, young or old, beginner or seasoned campaigner, all will be welcome.
We have entered adult Mixed and Mens teams, both division 2, for the coming season, and 2 teams in the 12 & Unders to keep our enthusiastic juniors occupied. These will run from late April until late June under our principle team co-ordinators, Joanie Whiteford and John Waring.
Top quality coaching continues on a regular basis with our qualified coaches John and Scott with assistance from Adrian.
Hopefully we have seen the last of the snow and we can get out and make the most of our fantastic club facilities.
