Membership Recognition

LIFE MEMBERS: Since 1927 and small group of members have been awarded Life Membership of Ngātaringa Tennis Club in recognition of their significant contribution to the running and development of the club. The integrity of this honour is closely guarded and a committee made up of recipients of the award ie existing life members meets to consider and ratify any new nominations.  In 2017, the club introduced a new level of honour, the 40-Year Pin.  This recognises long-standing membership.  Here are the lists of recipients of both awards:
