Summer Leagues

Wishing all our team’s great success for the coming weeks as they represent MLTC in the summer leagues. Congratulations on being selected as it is a great privilege. We particularly welcome any new league players who are representing MLTC for the first time and to any new junior members if doing so for the first time. Most importantly enjoy and remember you are part of history in the making – first Summer Leagues on the new Advantage Clay courts.

BEST OF LUCK TO CONOR GANNON WHO PLAYS IN THE ¼ FINALS OF THE ITF M25 NOTTINGHAM TODAY, AND IS ALSO IN THE FINALS OF THE DOUBLES!

 

COURT BOOKINGS

Thank you all for your cooperation while we had restricted court usage over the last few weeks it was much appreciated. A reminder that under 18’s are not permitted to play after 7 pm or before 12 pm at the weekends unless participating in league matches or league coaching.

MALE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are still looking for as many male members as possible to volunteer to assist with our club lock-up rota. This involves helping to ensure the clubhouse and grounds are properly secured at the end of the day (Monday to Thursday only) on a rotating basis.

The commitment is minimal, and the more volunteers we have, the lighter the load for everyone. It’s a great way to support the smooth running of the club and contribute to our community.If you are willing to take part or would like more information about what’s involved, please reply to this email or ring the office.

Thanks to those who have recently signed up!

We welcome your assistance with this!
