Several new members have asked me about the rules of Tennis and general Tennis Etiquette. You can find a simple version of the rules of tennis in our download section and I have also listed some basic etiquette details below and remember No.8 Enjoy Yourself!

Tips for good Tennis Etiquette
When playing tennis, you always need to show respect for your opponent and those playing on the courts around you. The following tips will help you

1. Don’t walk across a court when a match is in progress. Instead wait until the point has been played, then walk behind the baseline to your court.

2016 Membership subscriptions are due on the 1st April - This years membership form can be found in the download section or printed copies are available on the notice board in the club.

Spaces are still available for adult coaching sessions run by Willie Reynolds every Tuesday commencing 5th April. These weekly sessions are open to Grade 5 and upwards and will run weekly for an eight week period. If you are interested please add your name to the notice board in the club house.
