Can we ask all parents to be considerate to our neighbours when parking for coaching sessions. There have recently been some parking issues on Penleonard Close. This is an access only road and we request that members do not park on it. Also, although members are welcome to borrow balls, cones or racquets from the clubhouse lobby or equipment shed, please could we request that anything used gets put back after use. We have had an incident recently where items were damaged and left out on court.
The tennis committee were recently asked to provide clarification on junior participation at adult targeted sessions. Please find that clarification below.
Match Practise - This is an adult targeted session but juniors can be invited to play by exception.
Adult Coaching Groups - These are adult targeted sessions but where a suitable equivalent session does not exist in the junior program a junior can be invited to play by exception. An example of this would be when a young player who does not have equivalent ability players in their peer group, would benefit from being coached and playing with equivalent ability adult players instead.
Adult Week Night Social Sessions - These are adult sessions and juniors will not be invited to play.
Adult Saturday Social Session - Although this is an adult targeted session, juniors can be invited to play if their level and maturity are thought to be appropriate. This must be agreed in advance by a member of the committee - at which point in time, they will have an equal footing with other members and be able to attend this session without further approval going forwards. We are looking to add an additional family social session for yellow ball players. This will run directly after the normal Saturday sessions and be open to parents and children who have attended yellow ball group coaching. Watch this space!
Best wishes, The Tennis Committee
