NEWS UPDATES- e mails/paper copies
We will print out all news updates and display at the club for those who don't receive e mails. Please check the noticeboard to see what news there is.
We will continue to post out all full newsletters of course.
REGULAR FIXED FOURS/SINGLES
Do you play in a regular/weekly fixed four or singles ?
We are sometimes asked re courts for daytime tennis matches and don't want to give permission at times when courts are regularly in use by members. We are therefore drawing up a list of times/days when courts are used each week. We have a list so far as below. If your four doesn't appear, please e mail me so we can add your day/ time to the list. Or correct the times in the list, please. We realise the names of people playing each week will vary. Thanks for your help in this.
Monday 10.30am - George/Bob H singles
Monday 1.30pm - Carol H, Rosey & co
Tuesday 4pm - Gordon/Paul/Steve & co
Wednesday 1pm - John Tunnicliffe & co
Wednesday 2pm - George, Bob, Dennis, Bruce
Friday - 10am - George, Bob, Dennis V & co
Friday 10am – Bruce, Kath & co
HALF TERM WEEK
No junior coaching sessions next week so all courts free each afternoon until 6pm and also Friday evening until 9.30pm. Courts bookable on Tuesday and Thursday from 6pm.
Thanks and best wishes
