Saturday Social
Three courts were running with a total of 13 players who graced the grass courts for a great afternoon of tennis. 1-4pm on Saturdays is definitely the best time of the week when enjoyed this way. Social continues every Sat from 1pm – all welcome. This Saturday will also be the Club Championships so feel free to drop by and watch some matches.
Management Committee
Unfortunately we will be losing our president and secretary at the end of December and we will be looking for replacements. Our Club can not run effectively without the support of our members.
So if you can spare some time once a month to attend meetings please talk to Craig on 6573 2430. It is essential that we fill these positions and keep the committee active so please think about what you can give to your Club.
Working Bee
We will be holding a working bee on Saturday, November 14, at 8.30 to carry out some minor maintenance of the Club. Any members who can spare some time would be greatly appreciated.
