Excellent day of entertaining tennis. Well done to all our finalists and a big 'thank you' to Aidan for organising this event. Winners/ runners up can be found on the Club Championship tab but below are the photos.
Thank you to Sara for organsing and to everyone who participated in a fun event. We raised £73 for our Community Outreach Fund too!
We have updated our welcome letter which may contain useful information for all members. A pdf is provided below.
Thanks to everyone who supported our tennis & cake social on Saturday. We all had a fun morning and raised £76 for the Community Outreach Fund. Sorry we forgot to take any photos - next time! It was clearly a popular event so we're holding another tennis & cake social on Saturday 18 March.
Meantime here are some photos from our post-Christmas meal at the Ship Inn which was hugely successful and enjoyed by all those who attended.
Kids Pay & Play coaching sessions will run until October half term. Booking through the All Court Tennis Academy app (ACTA). If you can't book, turn up anyway and we'll help you log in.
Phil Leighton, an LTA Level 5 Coach, visited 12 local schools to promote tennis to 4 to 8 year olds. Glan Aber and Chester Tennis Clubs worked together to liaise with schools and run Open Day Roadshows at their respective clubs over the weekend with both clubs offering on-going promotional tennis courses.
The Open Days were a big success. Our three hour-long Sunday sessions, run by Phil Leighton in conjunction with Aidan and our coaching team, saw 200+ children experience fun on-court activities. We were delighted to sign up over 50 new players. The promotional courses included 6 weekly tennis lessons plus a racquet.
Thank you to everyone who supported the Open Day.
Friends of Westminster Park volunteers have been cutting back the hedge alongside the tennis courts. Some sections need infilling to enable laying which will help manage the height and strengthen the structure. This will benefit the courts if leaves are below the fence line and allow us to maintain a gap along our boundary. A work in progress!
Mini court has been repainted - all ready for play with new net installed too.
Delighted that Ashley Rogers was presented with the Tennis for Life Award for his contribution to Glan Aber over many years. Not only was Ash the Club Treasurer for 20 years, he was involved with the relocation of the club to its site in Westminster Park. Whilst no longer on the Committee, Ash is now a Trustee of the Club and we value his wealth of background knowledge.
