Tennis Club Play
The Sunday afternoon session has become more popular recently, so it will be extended to three courts from Sunday 10 May over the summer.
As the weather is getting better, club play sessions are being attended in increasing numbers. So just a quick reminder that warming up should be limited to 5 minutes so that players are not waiting off court too long.
A final reminder too that each member is allocated to a club play group: either Wednesday evening/Sunday afternoon, or Thursday evening/Sunday morning. You should NOT be attending mixed sessions across these groups. Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon club play is open to all.
If you are unsure what group you should be attending, or think you are in the wrong group, please contact me.
