Members and visitors of less competitive bent are reminded of Wednesday evening tennis at 6pm and Friday morning tennis at 9.30am.

The Friday tennis group is having lots of fun, and is finished before the day heats up. If you have not played for years and want to start up without pressure, this is the group for you. Just turn up at the West Street courts with your old racquet.

Information about the club championships on the weekend of 25/26 February will be sent out after the committee meeting this week.
