Club News

Tennis Club Party

Thanks to everyone who came along to the party in January. A great night was had by all, with enough curry to feed the 5000 and fantastic music from Last Night's Victory. We will keep you posted about future events, maybe a family tournament/BBQ in the summer? If you've got any suggestions for social or fundraising activities do let us know - league@chalfordtennisclub.net

CLUB LADDERS

We have set up two new club tennis ladders, one for mixed singles and one for mixed doubles. The aim is to provide the opportunity to play competitive matches, to help you improve, assess your improvement and meet other players of a similar standard. We would expect the top of the ladder to be very competitive and the lower end to be for beginners, improvers and social players.  All standards welcome.  There is no age limit as such, juniors can enter if approved by a coach. In the doubles, the players can be any combination of men and women and partners need not be the same for each match. Matches can be played at any time, including during the social sessions, particularly Thursday. Visit www.globaltennisnetwork.com and register, then search for Chalford on “Tennis Ladders” and “Find A Ladder”.  You should see both mixed singles and mixed doubles; click Sign Up for the ladders or ladder that you want to play in. Ladder start date: 1st December. Any questions? Contact Robert or Martin on info@chalfordtennisladder.co.uk”

 

Coaching Sessions

The Spring term coaching programme will run for five weeks, starting after February half term, with groups for all ages and abilities. There are Mini Red, Orange, Green and Junior sessions (for children aged 5 upwards) together with adult groups for beginners through to improvers. Information will be emailed out at the start of February. If you want to add your details to the database contact Sarah on 07900 654150 or email league@chalfordtennisclub.net  

New social session

We have introduced a new adult social session on Friday mornings, from 10am-midday. Everyone is welcome, and the emphasis is on exercise and enjoyment rather than overly competitive tennis!

Talented juniors

We've got some promising juniors at the club, and we're keen to encourage them in every way we can. Officially the social sessions on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings are for adult members, but talented youngsters may be able to come along and take part. Before doing so they must contact one of our club coaches and arrange to have a knock with them, so that they can assess their standard. Juniors who are given the go-ahead must be accompanied by an adult if they're 14 or under (that adult doesn't have to play) while they're up at the club.

We have an extensive programme of individual and small group development coaching taking place at the club for talented juniors. If you want to find out more please contact Charlie Crisp on 07738 131591.

Chalford Sports & Social Club

All members of the tennis club are automatically members of the main Sports & Social Club, and entitled to use the facilities there, including the lounge bar. You can gain access to the club by going round the front of the building and through the double doors that face the football/cricket pitch.  

Guests at the club

Just a reminder that guests are always welcome at the club, especially if they're considering joining themselves and want to see what we've got to offer. All we ask is that you sign them in on the notice in the booking cupboard.

It costs £2 per time to bring a guest along, and fees are collected at the end of the year when we send out membership renewal invoices.
