Saturday 21st November - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We need as many volunteers as possible for our LOVE TENNIS Day (Opening Day Promotion). Its the best opportunity we have to promote our club to the community, and encourage new members to join.  The day runs from 10am - 4pm, but don't worry you don't have to be there all day. All we ask is for you to spare 2 hours to help. That would take the pressure off the wonderful organising committee that have spent hours getting this organised for our club.
