The club's AGM will take place at 8pm on Wednesday 30th October (Committee Reports and Accounts available from 7.30pm). It is a chance for all senior members to see how the club is run and we would welcome as many as possible. Past AGMs have lasted no more than half an hour, so even if you play tennis on Wednesday, why not come along at 8pm and then return to tennis afterwards. An Agenda is on the noticeboard.
Nomination sheets for team captains and committee are also on the board so if you want to nominate your captain to run your team again or someone to stand as a committee member, please do so by 29th October.
Winter League matches are now underway at weekends - details on the club website will let you see how many matches take place on any one Saturday/Sunday. Each match uses 2 courts. We will always try to leave a court free for social tennis/casual turn up and play etc. Parent players may have to use the mini courts at times, however. Matches finish in mid November.
