FACILITIES UPDATES

Working Party!

A massive thank you to everyone who helped out last weekend, dodging the raindrops to cut back the hedges on courts 2 and 4. The help was really appreciated and saves the club much needed money on maintenance!

New Till!

The club is now in possession of a new till which is in the process of being programmed. In due course those trained on the bar will have to be retrained to use this till – keep an eye out for further information.
