Dear Members
We hope this news item finds you and you families well.
Following the lifting of many restrictions around outdoor exercise we are now delighted to re-open our tennis courts from Wednesday 13th May.
Courts may be used from this date for:
- both singles and doubles play by members of the same household
- singles only by any members provided social distancing rules are applied
I am sure many of you will now enjoy playing again - don’t forget to book a court on-line to avoid disappointment.
If you decide to play the following guidelines remain in place for the safety of all our members:
- Hands are washed both before and after play
- All communal areas are wiped down both before and after play - this includes court padlocks, measuring sticks and winders
- If you play singles with another member who does not live in the same household please remember social distancing - this includes not sharing equipment and aiming to use new balls or spray balls both before and after use
- Balls which go outside of your court are retrieved
Note: members will need to bring their own antibacterial wipes/sprays
Full guidance on hygiene and social distancing can be found on the NHS and Government websites
Membership: Many thanks go to all those who have already paid their membership for this year. We are still processing renewals at the normal fee (see attached membership form or website for details). However, in due course, the Committee will be considering how to address the court time lost during any lockdown period.
Until restrictions are fully lifted we are happy to accommodate guest players for those of you with adult/junior only memberships. For insurance purposes we ask that guest details are provided via email (name, dob, and contact number). In addition we kindly ask that a one off guest fee of £10 is paid (see attached membership form or website for payment details).
In the not too distant future we hope to remove all restrictions on court play, re-instate our club sessions, open up our club house and table tennis facility.
Balls: The club is able to offer cans of Babolat or Slazenger balls (4 balls) at a discounted rate of £4 per can. Please email for purchase information.
Thank you for your continued support
Best wishes
DTC Committee
