Hello!

Looks like summer is back. And there’s nowhere better to be than your Club! And there’s plenty going on. From sporting activities and wonderful grass tennis to croquet and walking football. The new Aquafit classes in the pool alongside swimming for adults and juniors, a range of gym classes and squash, racketball and pickleball too! With Club sessions to join or coaching to book up, there’s plenty on offer. Or, frankly, if it’s really as hot as they say it’s going to be, why not pop down for a cheeky drink from the bar. A full range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are available. And Members receive their special discount with your membership card! Anyway, let’s get to this week’s news;

Farewell to Louis

This from our head coach, Peter Richmond.

As you may of heard Louis will be leaving us at the end of the summer to pursue a teaching career. Louis has become an excellent coach over the last few years and will be sorely missed by his clients, members and myself. I’ve enjoyed helping him develop into the coach he now is and wish him all the best in his future.

We would like reassure all that tennis will continue for them and we will endeavour to introduce you to an alternative coach soon. There will be an advert for the role going on the LTA website this week. If any members are aware of level 2 or 3 coaches that may be interested please contact Peter neetacademyhq@gmail.com

Meanwhile a huge thanks to Louis from all of us at the Club and wishing him every success in his future career.

Our delicious pizza is available from 6:30pm, and we have discounted drinks at the bar. For example, a pint of house lager is just £2 a pint. Yes. Cheaper than the ‘Spoons!
