IMPORTANT - Locking up the club

Please make sure if you are the last person to leave the club, whatever time of day it is, that you lock the front door with the key in the key safe, return the key to the safe and jumble up the numbers. If there is a power cut, the magnets which hold the door and gates shut will fail so the clubhouse will be left unlocked and vulnerable to a break-in. Our insurance will be invalid if anything adverse happens whilst the clubhouse is insecure.

There have been a few occasions recently when this procedure has not been followed, and as we have had a recent reminder from the police about sports clubs being targeted, it is imperative that we are vigilant about security. If you need a reminder about the code for the key safe, ask by emailing us at boldon.ltc@outlook.com. Don’t wait until you are stood outside the door wondering how to get in or how to lock up. We may not be available to reply at that time. Thank you for your co-operation.

Ale-Trail cancellation

Unfortunately the Ale trail has had to be cancelled due to lack of interest.

On the other hand, the recent Ladies Afternoon tea was a great success. 41 ladies were treated to sandwiches, cakes and prosecco or a non-alcoholic equivalent. We were waited on by our very own butlers, Phil and John, and raised £674.50 for club funds! Definitely one to repeat. Thank you to the Funcom for your hard work in organising this. We have now raised more than £3,100 of our £5,000 target with 3 or 4 events still to come. J

New members’ (and others!) Whatsapp

The Whatsapp group for members to meet people and arrange games is now well under way, with a few games having been arranged already. Some of the people in the group are beginners, but some are a bit more experienced and just want a point of contact to arrange games with other members. If you would like to join this group, please send your name and phone number to Linda at this email address and she’ll add you. You can also add other members who you think might benefit from this type of contact point. Please note this is not a chat group: it is purely for the purposes of arranging games of tennis. We look forward to hearing from you.
