CLUB DAYS

Apart from when it clashes with the match calendar above, Club members meet each week during the playing season as follows. Club members who turn up at the lawns on one of these occasions can usually expect to get a game. At other times it is generally advisable to plan a specific game with another club member in advance. A list of members' contact details is posted inside the club hut.

There are no formal coaching courses scheduled for 2008, but free informal coaching is generally offered by the more experienced players on club days on a ad hoc basis to both existing club members and prospective new members who seek it.
