Mid Week Ladies interclub commences on Monday mornings from 30 October . Good luck also to all Junior teams playing the Saturday competition.

COURTS MAINTENANCE

We are entering a period of El Nino this spring with westerly winds prevailing that will affect the playability of courts if debris falls from the trees on our west boundary. Please avail yourselves of the two green sweepers at the corner of court 10 –they make it light work to cover the courts before play – just drop the leaves to the rear of the courts for removal later.

CLUB COACHING

Group coaching is available on Wednesday 6-7pm. Due to its popularity bookings are required for the 5 weeks from October 11 – November 8 pre-paid $50 (or $100 until 13 December) limited to 10 players. This secures your session for the block. Please book with Michel Galloway 021578772 – Club Captain
