Trustee’s Report 2024/25
New Clubhouse
The structure of the new Club House is almost complete. This is a very exciting development for the club. We continue to raise funds through grant applications and events.
Asset of Community Value
The club renewed our registration, in November 2024, to be listed as an Asset of Community Value. This will last for 5 years.
Tennis
Our adult coached sessions continue to be very popular, both with our members and the public. We hold regular social tennis sessions, which are very well attended. Our coaches provide classes for children at weekends and during school holidays at the club.
We hold regular tournaments within the club, and we enter teams into local League events. Accessible tennis: we provide tennis coaching for wheel chair users, and our Walking Tennis Group is popular for players with restricted mobility. Private lessons are also popular.
Membership
Membership numbers remain stable around 240. We are reducing our junior member price to encourage more younger players to join.
Safeguarding and Welfare
No safeguarding or welfare issues have been raised. There were a handful of non serious incidences on court which were recorded in the accident book. There was one serious accident, a member fell and broke his ankle in several places because he was not wearing appropriate foot wear.
