🎄🎾 A Jolly Christmas Update from Your Tennis Club 🎾🎄
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our members—past, present, and future! We hope this festive season is filled with joy, love, and, of course, plenty of tennis!
What a year it's been! We’ve received some wonderful early gifts, including our beautiful new courts that have been a hit with everyone. We also had a successful relaunch of the Club Championships, a fabulous Summer fundraiser, and most importantly, the safe and happy arrival of Dan's baby girl, Mara! 👶💖
The spirit of generosity and teamwork has shone brightly throughout the year, with our members working together in so many ways. Our teams have had a blast and some great success playing in the Summer, Late Summer, and Winter Leagues. Special mention goes to our junior teams and their many successes - the future of our league team looks bright!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed so generously to the collection for Sophie and Dan - around £400 in total. We were thrilled to present baby Mara with a personalized Peter Rabbit cushion, a cuddly toy, a photo frame, meal delivery vouchers, and John Lewis vouchers. What a wonderful community we have - Dan and his family extend their warmest thanks and appreciation to you. 🎁💕
Looking Ahead to 2024…
As we head into the new year, we’re already planning some exciting upgrades and events! The committee is working hard to upgrade our floodlights to keep the courts glowing through the winter months. Our AGM will be in March this year (date to be announced soon), so please do let us know any suggestions or feedback you may have—we’re always looking for ways to make our club even better!
Next year promises even more fun and friendly competition, with plans for the Club Championships, the Wimbledon tournament, and our legendary Club Ladder matches. Who will be the next challenger to knock Dan C off the top spot? It’s anyone’s game!
New Year, New Challenges?
If you're looking for some New Year's resolutions, why not:
- Join the Club Ladder and challenge yourself to some thrilling matches🎾.
- Bring along friends for a game (guest fees will help towards the cost of new lights :) ).
- Sign up for coaching to improve your game and compete for the club!
We’ve got plenty of social play, too, so whether you're looking to compete or just have fun, there's something for everyone.
So here's to an ace 2024, filled with smashes, serves, and endless rallying! We can't wait to see you on the courts—let's make next year even more memorable.
Wishing you all a festive season that's as bright as our new courts and a New Year filled with health, happiness, and plenty of tennis! 🎾🎉
Warmest wishes,
Catherine, on behalf of WPTC Committee
