Social Tennis
Social tennis is played throughout the year on Tuesday and
Thursday evenings ( 6pm-8pm approx) - please bring £1
contribution towards the lights during the winter; Saturday
afternoons ( 2pm-4pm, 2 courts only) and Sunday mornings (
10am-12pm, 2 courts only).
Social tennis is open to all members and all ages and abilities are very
welcome to join us. We encourage players to mix in, playing 8 games each
time before mixing up the pairings. Tennis balls are provided.
For further information please contact Heather Bailey on 01242 692761.
Matches
This season the Club has 4 ladies and 5 mens teams in the
Gloucestershire League. Home matches are played on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays and will normally take up courts 2 and 3. Occasionally it may be
necessary to use all 4 courts or to play some matches on Saturday afternoon,
but these events will be detailed either in the Membership Card or on the
Club notice board. The Membership Card gives details of all league matches.
For members keen to impress the team captains, we hold early season practice
nights at which one aim is to seek out new talent for the league campaigns.
At anytime, other than Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons,
when courts are free they are available for members to arrange their own
games. Whenever there are people waiting for a court the general rule is
that the court must be given up at the end of the current set.
For team practices we should have two floodlit courts and we hope a
half-lit (from the adjacent football lights) court for evening sessions, and
at least three, possibly four courts for the weekend sessions. This is the
time to turn up if you are interested in playing league tennis this year.
Please give Matt Clempson a call on 01242 522461 or 07906 364726 if you want
any further details.
Team practice resumes week beginning 28 February, arrangements as
follows.
Men: Fridays from 6pm, Sundays from 2pm
Ladies: Mondays from 6pm, Saturdays from 1pm
Tournaments and League Tennis
The club organises an annual closed tournament consisting of Ladies and
Men's singles as well as mixed doubles. American/Round Robin tournaments are
also held on Sundays once per month (see joining notes above) between May
and August.

League. There is also a team entered into the winter mixed league.
