Membership Applications

You should note that, by applying for a membership package (see below), you will be deemed to consent to your, or a minor for whom you are responsible as a parent or guardian, becoming a member of the Karori United Tennis Club Inc., which is a registered incorporated society.    As such, any member is bound by the provisions of the Club's Constitution and any regulations that its Executive Committee may make under those provisions.   

Also be advised that your application  to become a new member will be subject to the approval of the Executive Committee, which will consider, if practicable, each application at the Committee's meeting following the receipt of the application.  The Committee may approve or reject the application on reasonable grounds as it sees fit.   If the application is rejected, the Committee will refund any payment made with the application. 

Membership Packages  

The club offers a range of membership packages (set out below) that members may select and pay for using the buttons below.  

Note that there is no membership package offered for Senior + Midweek.    If you are a senior you will be welcome at any Midweek session or event at no extra charge.    If, in addition to being a senior, you wish to play at Midweek sessions and/or play Midweek interclub, apply for the Senior package plus the add-on fees (including Midweek interclub fees) that are appropriate to you.  Then advise the Membership Secretary at membership@karoritennis.co.nz so your name on the Contacts list is tagged Midweek as well as Senior for the purpose of communications.      

Interclub Fees

Just select the fee or fees applicable to you or to your family members  who are playing interclub and it will be automatically added to the amount owing for the package.     

Note that if you need to pay for an interclub fee separately after applying and paying for a membership package, it is not possible to pay it  by reapplying for a membership package.    Use the "Interclub fee only" package, which has a subscription charge of $0.00, to which you may add the relevant interclub fee or fees.     

Alternatively, pay the interclub fee(s) by making the appropriate bank transfer to Karori United Tennis Club's account 12-3140-0178795-00, with the member’s surname as the Code and first name as the Reference.  That will let us reconcile the interclub fee payment with the member.   

Court and Clubhouse Access

Note that our courts at 16 Campbell St are locked when no-one is at the club and access to them is restricted to members only.  Members may obtain a key to give them access to the courts and the clubhouse by paying the club a refundable deposit of $10  (contribution to  key cutting costs) and arranging delivery of the key from Sharon Cottrell cottrell-plunket@xtra.co.nz.
