In these troubled times we are pleased to be able to share some good news for a change. Our recently resurfaced tennis courts were spray painted on May 15th, after several weeks delay due to lockdown. Thank you to Courtstall, our court contractors, for putting us at the top of their list once they restarted working. The courts are looking smart in green & red – please take the opportunity to go & see this village sports facility & be tempted to pick up a racket & play.
The courts are open to both the public on a pay & play basis & to Club members. After so many weeks of Covid-19 restrictions this is a wonderful opportunity to get your fix of exercise & enjoy yourselves.
At time of writing the courts are to be reopened on May 24th with strict safety procedures in place.
Pay & Play costs per hour are £7.50 a court.
Membership fees have been calculated for the remainder of this tennis year at a pro rata of the annual rates with a small additional reduction to take account of current reduced access/facilities.
This results in fees from June 1st through to April 1st next year of:
Single Adult £75 (2 adults in a family £150).
Family members, children 18 years & under, of a paying adult member are free.
Juniors 18 years & under with no adult family member £25
Over 18 in full time education at junior rate of £25
For anyone paying for 2 adult memberships please note that we can offer a monthly direct debit adult payment option. Please also enquire about our rolling month on month membership, or quarterly membership terms.
BACS payments to: TSB Bank, Sort Code 30-18-16, Account No. 00419290 or cheques payable to Stoke St Gregory Tennis Club.
- If wanting to play, it will be necessary to book a court in advance, pay fees, if not a current member, & obtain a code to access the courts. We are looking to provide an automated online booking system, but meanwhile please contact Stuart Mark – details below.
At all times, players should adhere to the Government’s social distancing guidelines (staying at least 2m away from others), and practice public health advice for hygiene. Please also bring own sanitiser & hand gel. Here is the link to the LTA’s guidelines for players, which we ask all of you to read. Information is also posted on the noticeboard at courts.
